I gave the Indexer the IP to receive the data from the remote machine and also configured the port in my indexer as 9997 default, which I gave in my forwarder. I haven't received any data from that host. What's the issue and where do I need to make configuration changes?</P> <P>Please help me out.</P> Wed, 18 May 2016 08:12:28 GMT saibhaskar 2016-05-18T08:12:28Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-to-configure-a-Splunk-Universal-forwarder-on-a-remote-system/m-p/256957#M49394 <P>I've already installed the Splunk Universal Forwarder in my remote PC.
