Hi All,

Some months ago, I remember seeing Splunk Universal Forwarder download page for older versions like 6.x , 7.x for windows 2007 and windows 2008. 

I am trying to find the same. In official splunk download page , the previous release I can see is 9.x. 

Does anyone of you know does the older version download page still exist ? Please anyone of you share if so. 

Thanks, 
PNV

Hi @Poojitha 

You could use https://livehybrid.github.io/downloadSplunk/ which has download links to older versions but it only goes as old as 7.0.0

Or https://github.com/livehybrid/downloadSplunk which is the CLI version of the same tool.

Hi @Poojitha ,

older versione of the Splunk UF are available in the Splunk Download Previous Releases page.

If you need an older version from the official Splunk site, you have to contact the Splunk Support.

Put attention that however, these forwarders are no longer supported and that they may contain vulnerabilities, and that they may not communicate with supported versions of Splunk Enterprise or Splunk Cloud, for this reason I hint to contact Splunk Support.

Anyway, I remember that in the Community. some months ago (e.g. @tscroggins at https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Enterprise/Need-download-link-for-Legacy-Splunk-Universal-For... ), someone shared oldest versions, but now I don't find this post, you could search for it.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
