Specifying Indexer DNS in Forwarder outputs.conf

Hi,

I'm trying to configure my forwarder to send logs toward Splunk Light and couldn't find the DNS address,
Below you can see my forwarder outputs.conf:

[tcpout:splunk-receiver]
server=<The DNS I'm looking for>:9997

So my question is how do I find the DNS in Splunk Light / Splunk Cloud?

Thanks in advance,

Tal

Assuming that it is *nix, you can use nslookup <The DNS you are looking for or even ping .... But your question is very unclear as to what you really need.
