centOS 7 to enable port 8000

Enabling normally means configuring it to accept packets on the firewall. Most applications require at least 2 ports to be opened, I'm not familiar with splunk but I'd encourage you to check and see what the second port would be.
That said, according to memory, there is a graphical thingy that you can access by going to activities overview->typing in 'firewall' and hitting the enter key and then you'll see something named "firewal-config" or something similar. I've never used it but it's supposed to be easy to figure out.
Or, you can configure your firewall through iptables, which has
an educational manual page and the added bonus of reliably working.
