Which command shows the port that the indexer is listening on?

  1. ./splunk display listen

  2. ./splunk show listen

  3. ./splunk stats listen

  4. ./splunk check listen

The correct answer is: ./splunk display listen

The command that accurately shows the port that the indexer is listening on is the one that utilizes the "display" keyword. This command provides you with both a clear output and a quick summary of the configured listening ports for the Splunk instance. By using `./splunk display listen`, users can efficiently verify the network configuration of the indexer without delving into more complex settings or logs. Other available commands, such as "show," "stats," or "check," do not provide the same straightforward overview of listening ports or might serve different purposes within the Splunk environment, making them less suitable for this specific inquiry.
