Follow the instructions for setting up Cato Networks source and use the same source category while installing the app.

Installing the Cato Networks app​

This section has instructions for installing the Sumo Logic app for Cato Networks and descriptions of each of the dashboards.

Locate and install the app you need from the App Catalog. If you want to see a preview of the dashboards included with the app before installing, click Preview Dashboards.

3. Configure Cato Networks app using the steps described in the Cato Networks Cloud-to-Cloud Source. If you already have set up your data, skip this step by clicking on Next.
4. Complete the following fields:
   1. Data Source. Select either of these options for the data source:
      • Choose Source Category and then choose a source category from the list.
      • Select Enter a Custom Data Filter and type in a custom source category that starts with an underscore. For Example, _sourceCategory=MyCategory.
   2. Folder Name. You can retain the existing name, or enter a name of your choice for the app.
   3. Select the Location in Library (the default is the Personal folder in the library), or click New Folder to add a new folder.
5. Click Next.

Once an app is installed, it will appear in your Personal folder, or other folder that you specified. You can share it with your organization.

The panels will begin to fill automatically. It's worth noting that each panel gradually fills with data that matches the time range query and has been received since the panel was created. The results will not be available right away, but with some patience, you will be able to view full graphs and maps.
