	Configure X-Pack.Monitoring which monitors Elasticsearch or Kibana and so on. Most plugins included in X-Pack are not for free, so you mush buy licenses to use. However, you can try to use for 30 days with trial license. Refer to the official site about subscription below. ⇒ https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions
