Explanation
In Splunk's Deployment Server (forwarder management interface), a Server Class (C) is the construct that maps deployment clients to the apps they should receive. A Server Class defines two things: which clients belong to it (using client filters such as hostname, IP, machine type, or tags) and which apps are associated with it. Clients that match the Server Class filters will automatically download and install the apps assigned to that Server Class. This is the primary mechanism for distributing configurations and apps at scale across many forwarders. 'App Class', 'Client Class', and 'Forwarder Class' are not valid Splunk deployment server concepts.
