B. When filtering 10%-15% of incoming events.

C. When monitoring a log file.

whenever possible, it is smaller and more efficient. Only use a heavy

forwarder when: • The UI is needed • Advanced event-level routing is

needed • You are filtering more than 80% of incoming events •

Anonymizing or masking data before forwarding to indexer • Predictable

version of Python is needed • Required by an app/modular input (HEC,

DBX, Checkpoint OPSEC LEA)

When monitoring and forwarding events collected from a file containing

unstructured textual events, what is the difference in the Splunk2Splunk

payload traffic sent between a universal forwarder (UF) and indexer

compared to the Splunk2Splunk payload sent between a heavy forwarder

(HF) and the indexer layer? (Assume that the file is being monitored locally

on the forwarder.)

when the sourcetype is specified in the inputs.conf and

EVENT_BREAKER_ENABLE is set to true.

resulting in larger payload)
