You most likely want to use either

msiexec.exe /i splunkuniversalforwarder.msi RECEIVING_INDEXER=[indexerhostname]:9997 AGREETOLICENSE=yes /quiet

or if you have a deployment server, then use:

msiexec.exe /i splunkuniversalforwarder.msi DEPLOYMENT_SERVER=[deploymentserverhostname]:8089 AGREETOLICENSE=yes /quiet

If you do not include the agreetolicense, it will not work unattended.
