Use of Splunk Forwader on Arista with Distributed Splunk.

Has anyone configured Splunk Forwarder running on Arista switches to talk to distributed Splunk environment with configs being pushed from Deployment server?

Hi,

A couple of customers are using the deployment server to push configs for splunk forwarder. But this would require a short term workaround of just using the telemetry application without the cliplugin of AristaApp, and adding the telemetry scripts to the inputs.conf file to make data collection work.

Thanks,
Sakti
