Suggested Answer: B

For setting up a deployment client, the correct stanza syntax in inputs.conf includes specifying targetUri with the port 8089, which is the management port for Splunk instances, not the data port 9997. [Reference: Splunk Docs on deployment server configurations]

I think the answer is B. The targetUri configuration specifies the deployment server address, and 10.1.2.3:8089 is the correct port for the deployment server.
