Hello,
I need to upgrade the Splunk indexer version to version 9.2
But, we have a few instances which have Splunk forwarders of version 6.6.3 , 7.0.4 , 7.2.1
I have referred the below link. But, there is no mention of compatibility with versions prior to 7.3
Compatibility between forwarders and Splunk Enterprise indexers - Splunk Documentation
The 6.x are no longer supported, hence why they are most likely no longer listed. I have seen older versions still working, but may not support new features / config's / settings etc that you may want to use.
You can check the table's listed here for supported versions?
