Why is the index not capturing UDP PortTraffic data?

Within Splunk, we created two UDP ports. We are able to see traffic using Wireshark, however, the Splunk index is not populating.

Is there additional configuration necessary?

please share your inputs.conf also, try and search index=* if oyu didnt define index on your inputs, it will go to the default index. lastly, verify your UDP sources has Splunk IP and relevant port configured as target
