Yes i am getting several logs.... we have enabled logs from our firewall & F5. so i wanted to separate them. if i run sourcetype=syslog or source="udp:514" i get both device logs... how can i separate the logs?

Please run the search:

sourcetype=syslog

I want to know if you are getting any syslog data in Splunk.

Did you add the UDP data input on port 514 and set the sourcetype to syslog in the Manager UI of the Splunk indexer?

So you have F5 devices sending syslog to the Splunk server on port 514? Can you verify that the syslog is getting to the actual server using windump or something similar?
