How to use Splunk Forwarder in my personal laptop for testing purpose and forward the data to Splunk from a monitored local text log file kept in a directory. Please note that I have Splunk and Splunk Forwarder on the same laptop. If this is possible, please guide me. I have used Files and Directory option in Splunk to get the data in indexers and search it. It is working as expected.
This is just for visualizing splunk forwarder forwarding data to Splunk. Nothing else.
