Is there such a thing as a Spunk AI forwarder that is placed on a device that you can control through biometics the flow of data? Or a Smart Forwarder?

Hi @bhall_2 .. there are two forwarders - Splunk Universal forwarder(UF) and Splunk heavy forwarder(HF).

(the old legacy forwarder is called as Splunk Light forwarder).

maybe if you could update us more details about the requirement( more details about "you can control through biometics the flow of data" ), we can suggest you better. thanks

 

Best Regards

Honestly - I have no idea what you are talking about.

Could you elaborate a bit more what such thing would do? Maybe it's possible to implement it using existing components. Or maybe it's simply impossible. But to answer such question it's necessary to understand it first 🙂

@bhall_2 - I didn't hear of it.

Only Splunk Universal Forwarder (Splunk Agent on the host).
