Data will eventually stop flowing everywhere if 145.188.183.184 : 9097 is unreachable.
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

The outputs.conf file defines how forwarders send data to receivers1.You can specify some output configurations at installation time (Windows universal forwarders only) or the CLI, but most advanced configuration settings require that you edit outputs.conf1.

The [tcpout:...] stanza specifies a group of forwarding targets that receive data over TCP2.You can define multiple groups with different names and settings2.

The server setting lists one or more receiving hosts for the group, separated by commas2.If you specify multiple hosts, the forwarder load balances the data across them2.

Therefore, option A is correct, because the forwarder will send data to both inputsl.mysplunkhfs.corp:9997 and inputs2.mysplunkhfs.corp:9997, even if 145.188.183.184:9097 is unreachable.
