Splunk Core Certified Advanced Power User — Question 28

Which optional configuration setting in inputs.conf allows you to selectively forward the data to specific indexer(s)?

Answer options

• A. _TCP_ROUTING
• B. _INDEXER_LIST
• C. _INDEXER_GROUP
• D. _INDEXER_ROUTING

Correct answer: A

Explanation

_TCP_ROUTING is the correct answer because it allows for the selective forwarding of data to specific indexers based on the routing settings. The other options, while related to indexing, do not specifically provide the functionality to control data forwarding in the same way.
