To enable Autonomous Digital Experience Management (ADEM) for your Prisma Access
Remote Networks, you must have a license for Prisma Access for Remote Networks. You
can then apply your ADEM Remote Networks license to the compute locations and let the
SD-WAN sites connected to those compute locations run synthetic tests that continuously
monitor the digital experience of your remote sites on those applications.
Prisma AccessAutonomous DEM for Remote Networks is only supported if the remote network
is a Prisma SD-WAN device.
ADEM for Remote Networks is only supported when Aggregate Bandwidth is enabled on Prisma Access.
Purchase Autonomous DEM license for Remote Networks.
If you purchased an Autonomous DEM license with a new Prisma Access subscription, you
must activate ADEM during the Prisma Access activation process. If you
purchased an add-on Autonomous DEM license for an existing Prisma Access subscription, activation will happen automatically.
With
an active ADEM Remote Networks license, each SD-WAN device at a
remote site is capable of running a certain number of synthetic
tests based on the size of the SD-WAN device.

Each platform can run up to a defined number
of application tests presuming each application is configured to
use a maximum of 4 paths. If the number of paths configured per
application increases, it will reduce the overall number of application
tests per platform. The Administrator has the flexibility to enable
application performance monitoring on active paths only while creating
the application tests on the ADEM portal.
Based on the application forwarding policy configured on Prisma SD-WAN, ADEM will
monitor all available paths for individual applications. Each path monitored,
whether it is an application’s active or backup path is considered as one test.
Hence, if an application is monitored for three paths, it will be considered as
three tests, but if you also monitor the backup paths for that application, then
it will be considered as 6 tests- three tests for the active paths and three for
the backup paths. So, you must decide whether to monitor both active and the
backup paths for applications or only the active paths. The more paths you
monitor per application, the less number of applications you will be able to
monitor from a SD-WAN remote site.
You must have enabled all Prisma Access remote network configuration to securely connect Prisma SD-WAN remote sites. For details on configuring aggregate
bandwidth, refer to the documentation for Panorama Managed Prisma Access or
Cloud Managed Prisma Access
respectively.
You must be running these mandatory versions of the following
software:
Software Name
Mandatory Version
Prisma Access (Cloud Managed or Panorama)
2.2 Preferred
Prisma SD-WAN
5.6.1-b13
CloudBlades (Prisma Access Cloud Managed)
3.1.1
CloudBlades (Prisma Access Panorama Managed)
2.1.2
Whether you are using ADEM on Panorama Managed Prisma Access or Cloud Managed Prisma Access, you can manage ADEM from the Strata Cloud Manager console.
Use the Autonomous DEM Summary and Applications dashboards within the Strata Cloud Managerconsole to get a sense of the baseline digital experience score for your SASE
environment as a whole, and for each individual application.
Even before
you begin configuring application tests to monitor specific applications,
you can use the Applications dashboard to
get an overall view of the applications in use across your network and
use this information to decide which applications you want to monitor.
Add application tests for the remote sites that you want
to monitor.
Use the ADEM dashboards to monitor the digital experience
of users, remote sites, and applications across your SASE environment
and use the information to troubleshoot issues as they arise.
