Question 65

Which is a valid stanza for a network input?

    Correct Answer: D

    A valid stanza for a network input would be properly configured to specify the protocol, host, and correct configuration options. For a TCP input, options for connection_host should be either 'dns', 'ip', or 'none', and it must follow the correct format. 'connection_host' with the value 'web' is not valid within Splunk's configuration parameters for TCP and UDP inputs. Therefore, the valid stanza for a network input in this case is '[tcp://172.16.10.1:10001] connection_host = dns sourcetype = dns'.
