https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-do-I-configure-an-on-prem-intermediate-heavy-forwarder-to/m-p/228247#M44471 <P>I want to build an indexer, search head, and deployment server on our own (not Splunk's ) AWS VPC. The overall question is, how do I configure an On-Prem Intermediate Forwarder (HWF) to connect to the Cloud version of the indexer? Just looking for a general answer, I don't know what our Cloud service offering provides (VPN, SSL etc etc).</P> Fri, 18 Sep 2015 17:28:15 GMT DazzedNConfused 2015-09-18T17:28:15Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-do-I-configure-an-on-prem-intermediate-heavy-forwarder-to/m-p/228247#M44471 <P>I want to build an indexer, search head, and deployment server on our own (not Splunk's ) AWS VPC.

From there, configure your forwarder to point that indexer from your on-premise HWF.</P> Thu, 01 Oct 2015 22:41:00 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-do-I-configure-an-on-prem-intermediate-heavy-forwarder-to/m-p/228248#M44472 esix_splunk 2015-10-01T22:41:00Z
