Along with the App, you'll need to install the "Cisco Networks Add-on" and to use the sourcetype cisco:ios for the Syslog data sent from the switches and routers.

I have logs data stored on Syslog-ng ---->universal forwarder----> splunk Server
I couldn't find the feature sourcetype cisco:ios for the Syslog data sent from the switches and routers.
The Networks App looks great but I Need input the data from syslog server to splunk app, that's the challenging. If you can be help me with bit more information would helps me a lot.

You will need to manually define the sourcetype in the inputs.conf under the monitor stanza:

There are many inputs.conf. However, it's better to do the configuration in Splunk_Home/etc/apps/search/local/inputs.conf
