If you use a tool such as foreman or dashboard, you can simply forward the 
reports to it.

AM: not that simply - how about security? the puppet 8140 traffic is encrypted 
and mutually authenticated between the agent and master the puppet dashboard - 
how will you achieve the mutual X509 based authentication between the master 
and 
remote dashboard?


additionally, afair, you could simply define the report server on the clients 
and forward to any master.

AM: not if the clients can talk only to the master and not to the remote 
dashboard

 
I am looking for something similar to the central inventory server as it works 
greatly for facts but for reports as well.
that is built into foreman since almost two years now.
