You can now seamlessly enable Strata Logging Service (SLS) for existing Panorama-managed firewalls without requiring intervention from Palo Alto Networks support.
As a prerequisite for using the SLS feature with CNGFW, Panorama must first be added to the SCM/HUB. For more information, see Associate device with a tenant.
To handle these changes, do the following:
  • Get the Panorama device serial number (This should be the same Panorama through which Cloud NGFW Firewall is managed)
  • Add Panorama device serial number to the Tenant Service Group (TSG) where Strata Logging Service (SLS) is enabled. For more information, see Associate Devices with a Tenant.
  • Once the above is complete, generate a new configuration string. For more information, see Panorama Policy Management.
  • Update the firewall in Azure portal with the new configuration.
Prerequisites:
Following are the prerequisites for SLS integration with Panorama-managed firewalls, as these will result in degraded statuses and messages if not met.
  • Panorama Plugin for Azure version 5.2.2 and above.
  • The Azure Service and Panorama must be located within the same Cloud Service Provider (CSP).
  • Panorama and SLS must be associated with the same Tenant Service Group (TSG).
  • When creating a firewall, a PIN/VALUE must be generated from the CSP where Panorama is, and this must be used in the registration string.
