However, why not control this by specifying the default routing group in outputs.conf instead? This seems to be the more natural way to create a "default" forwarding group. </P> Wed, 18 Mar 2015 16:43:04 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/187166#M37427 BenjaminWyatt 2015-03-18T16:43:04Z Re: Can I set _TCP_ROUTING in the default stanza for inputs.conf? https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/187167#M37428 <P>I had been using the default group, but needed an alternative for a few hosts that have defaultGroups set in system/local that route to other splunk servers. </P> Thu, 19 Mar 2015 01:11:49 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/187167#M37428 juniormint 2015-03-19T01:11:49Z Re: Can I set _TCP_ROUTING in the default stanza for inputs.conf? https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/187168#M37429 <P>This didn't work for me. I had to add the _TCP_ROUTING field to each input that I wanted. Also, removed the _TCP_ROUTING from the default stanza. </P> Mon, 28 Sep 2020 19:11:42 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/187168#M37429 juniormint 2020-09-28T19:11:42Z Re: Can I set _TCP_ROUTING in the default stanza for inputs.conf? https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/548515#M91192 <P>_TCP_ROUTING in the default stanza should work, but it didn't work for me either.</P> Mon, 19 Apr 2021 22:35:59 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Can-I-set-TCP-ROUTING-in-the-default-stanza-for-inputs-conf/m-p/548515#M91192 anwarmmian 2021-04-19T22:35:59Z
