Getting Data In

rsyslog no send logs in specific ip range

Hi,

I have 2 indexers

with the command I confirm that port 9997 is open.

In one of the two indexers all the incoming connections remain in the "SYN_RECV" state

In the other indexer some are in the "SYN_RECV" state and others are "ESTABLISHED"

The funny thing is that one ip range if connected and the other ip range does not

tcpdump is a relative test, because those in the "ESTABLISHED" state are not recognized by ping, telnet, or sniffer but deliver the logs to the indexer and the indexer to the search head and are displayed normally

The firewall area says that the policies are correct.

I am guaranteeing that port 9997 is in the listening state, is it a splunk configuration problem, or is it a transmission level network policy problem?

with the command netstat -an | grep 9997 you are guaranteeing that the server has the port open and in the listening state

The problem was due to the policies of one of the firewalls
