Forward NetFlow data

Hello,

Im new to Splunk and wanted to understand can I forward NetFlow data trough Splunkforwarder 7.0 (which is already configured on server) or I need to install Splunk Stream forwarder to the same servers to forward NetFlow data?

In the splunk docs Documentation/StreamApp/7.1.2/DeployStreamApp/InstallStreamForwarderonindependentmachine is how to deploy Independent Stream forwarder, but we dont have installed Splunk Streams and only thing what is needed from our side is to forward data to Customer Splunk servers.

Please let me know is it possible to send NetFlow data using Splunkforwarder 7.0.

Thanks.
