Content and Database Updates | Content (regular and critical) updates and full URL database updates are published multiple times
a day. The PAN-DB public cloud updates the malware and phishing URL
categories every five minutes. The firewall also checks for critical
updates whenever it queries the cloud servers for URL lookups. | Content updates and full URL database updates
are available once a day during the work week. |
URL Categorization Requests | A URL Filtering profile. A URL Filtering log.
| You can request a URL categorization change through Palo Alto Networks Test A Site website. |
Unresolved URL Queries | If the firewall can't resolve a URL query, the request is sent to the servers in the public
cloud. | If the firewall can't resolve a query, the request is sent to the appliances in the PAN-DB
private cloud. If there isn't a match for the URL, the PAN-DB
private cloud sends an unknown category response to the
firewall; the request isn't sent to the public cloud unless you've
configured your appliances to access the PAN-DB public cloud.
If the appliances in your PAN-DB private cloud operate completely
offline, the firewall doesn't send any data or analytics to the
public cloud. |
