 You can connect a locally hosted LLM to Elastic using the OpenAI connector. This requires your local LLM to be compatible with the OpenAI API format.
 
-### Requirements
-
-**Model selection:**
-- Download from trusted sources only
-- Consider parameter size, context window, and quantization format for your needs
-- Prefer "instruct" variants over "base" or "chat" versions when multiple variants are available, as instruct models are typically better tuned for following instructions
-
-**Integration setup:**
-- For Elastic Cloud: Requires a reverse proxy (such as Nginx) to authenticate requests using a bearer token and forward them to your local LLM endpoint
-- For self-managed deployments on the same host as your LLM: Can connect directly without a reverse proxy
-- Your local LLM server must use the OpenAI SDK for API compatibility
