Question 78

The CLI command splunk add forward-server indexer: will create stanza(s) in which configuration file?

    Correct Answer: C

    The splunk add forward-server indexer:<receiving-port> command is used to specify a target indexer and its receiving port for data forwarding. This configuration involves outgoing data specifying where the forwarder should send the data. Such settings are typically defined in the outputs.conf file, aligning with its function of managing outbound data configurations to indexers.
