The default is `true`, which means forwarding. There are multiple FE nodes in Doris, one of which is the Master node. Usually users can connect to any FE node for full-featured operation. However, some of detail information can only be obtained from the Master FE node. For example, the `SHOW BACKENDS;` command, if not forwarded to the Master FE node, can only see some basic information such as whether the node is alive, and forwarded to the Master FE to obtain more detailed information including the node startup time and the last heartbeat time.
