Noob alert! Have searched thru a number of threads/queries, but I'm still missing something. I have a Gateway server/appliance that generates syslogs and sends them out over UDP on port 514 to an IP address that I can specify. I have this working on a Kiwi and Splunk trial local Windows PC. I would like to try this on Splunk Storm as a hosted option, but I can't install any Forwarders on the Gateway server and only have the Syslog Server IPv4 address field as input and thus can't enter the url:port name given by splunk storm Network data entry (eg., logsX.splunkstorm.com:YYYYY ). I can translate that into an IP address thru tracert, but I can't enter a port on the gateway server.
Am I out of luck here with Storm?
Thanks, David
