SPLK-1003 Exam - Question 65


Which is a valid stanza for a network input?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: CD

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'.

Confirmation in inputs.conf under TCP: connection_host = [ip|dns|none]. Thus, web does not exist as an option and must be answer D.

connection_host = web is not supported attribute value, instead connection_host=dns (answer D) is correct.

D is correct. Although in theory you could use 9997 when I tried to configure it Splunk said it was not available.

D - page 142 in Data Admin pdf for options/examples.
