Hi. I am new to splunk. I have configured everything. I am trying to solve this issue for 2 days.

I have universal forwerder on the ubuntu server with different network. I have downloaded splunk enterprise to my windows 10 computer.

My port 9997 is enabled. Firewall is disabled. Even with zyxel interface i bypassed the port 9997.

My splunk is listening on port 9997.

The thing is with telnet from any other source to my computer (i tried with both my mobile internet and UF client) is still getting denied.

How should i proceed to make it work. Im stuck so bad

Thanks for your helps

this is the mobile internet test with Test-NetConnections to my pc (splunk server i guess)

Hi @Cyner__,

If both devices are connected to your Zyxel access point / router using WiFi, make sure layer-2 isolation is correctly configured for the devices to communicate. You should be able to find instructions for configuring isolation white lists in your Zyxel documentation.
