I have a Bluecoat device i want to monitor that device logs using UF. after have opened port from bluecoat to a relay server(Windows server with UF installed). But Data is not getting forwarded to Indexer..Please let me know if forwarding logs from network devices through tcp port using Splunk UF is possible..

If thats possible please suggest me some way to troubleshoot this issue(from Splunk UF data is not sent to Indexer)

Yes, it is possible in UF that you can enable a UDP/TCP port and start receiving logs from network appliance. Check the firewall communication between network devices -- > UF --> Indexers.
