Unable to send logs into Splunk from Django REST API

Hi,

 

I need to send logs from a Django REST API to Splunk via Syslog protocol.
I am currently facing connection issues with the host and port I am using.

Here is the code I am using:

My current output is as follows:

POR160893_1-1637281643257.png

 

Can someone please advise me on what port or host should be used to send such logs into Splunk?
Do I need to know what indexer I will be storing these logs on also?

Thanks
