Type that in your search as is, you just need to know what index the firewall data is being written to and update the portion after index=

Once you get the syntax correct, you can create a report by clicking Save As > Report and schedule it to run daily, weekly, etc.

Would you mind providing little more information ?
- What's present in your events regarding firewall? or How would you identify that the events are coming from firewall?
- Is the source field contain any information regarding the actual source of information?
