This sounds like it may be an issue with the Defense Center not accepting the connection; most likely due to the Splunk system IP not matching that of the client certificate when it was generated. When you generated the certificate, did you use a hostname? If so, can the DC match the hostname to that of the Splunk system the eStreamer client is running on? Keep in mind any NATs that may be in there as well.
