Review the CN-Series Deployment Checklist to understand
the tasks needed to deploy the CN-Series Firewall.
To deploy the CN-Series firewall, you
must complete the following tasks:
If you have not done so already, License the CN-Series Firewall—generate
your authorization code and have it on hand when you are ready to
deploy the CN-Series firewall.
Review the CN-Series Prerequisites—before
you begin your deployment, make sure you understand the system requirements
needed to deploy the CN-Series firewall.
Deploy Panorama—you must use Panorama to configure, deploy,
and manage your CN-Series firewall deployment. For more information
about deploying and setting up a Panorama appliance, see Set Up Panorama.
Edit the yaml
files to fit your deployment—review the Editable Parameters in CN-Series Deployment YAML Files before
your deploy the CN-Series firewall. Many of the parameters set in
the yaml files must be modified to successfully deploy the CN-Series
firewall.
) If you are deploying your CN-Series firewall
as a Kubernetes service, you can Enable Horizontal Pod Autoscaling on the CN-Series. Horizontal
Pod Autoscaling (HPA) allows your CN-Series firewall deployment
to autoscale dynamically along with your Kubernetes environment.
Configure Panorama to Secure a Kubernetes Deployment—after you
have deployed your CN-Series firewall, use Panorama to configure
security policies that enable traffic enforcement and push those
policies to the firewall.
