Is [any://] valid in a networking input?

Hi,

In an inputs.conf, is [any://1111] (for example) valid in a network input to use port 1111 for both TCP and UDP? Or do you need two seperate TCP and UDP stanzas w/ port 1111 specified?

Hi russell120,

according to the docs https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/admin/Inputsconf#TCP: there is only [tcp: ] or [udp: ] listed as valid options. That means you need to create two seperate stanzas.

Hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS
