Hello Everyone!
So, I have my Splunk Enterprise and universal forwarder installed on the same machine running Windows Server 2019.

I wanted to know if there was a suitable way of collecting logs from switches using UF and bringing it to the indexer?

Hi,

Splunk forwarder can forward any files on the host machine.
Configure the forwarder to monitor the files in your network switches and route to the indexer.

Also, check Splunk base for any in-built apps like as below.
