    Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
    • Cloud NGFW for AWS
    • Cloud NGFW subscription
    • Palo Alto Networks Customer Support Account (CSP)
    • AWS Marketplace account
    • User role (either tenant or administrator)
    Use this information to onboard your Cloud NGFW resource. Information for locating your Cloud NGFW serial number and how to create a support case are also included.

    Register Your Cloud NGFW Tenant during the Initial Login

    Cloud NGFW will prompt you to register a support account for your Cloud NGFW tenant after you successfully reset your password and before you log in to your Cloud NGFW tenant console for the first time. If you're a registered user of one or more existing Palo Alto Networks support accounts, you can choose to register your Cloud NGFW tenant with one of them during initial login.
    You may have used a different email address to subscribe to Cloud NGFW and a different one to access the Palo Alto Networks support account. Alternatively, you can create a dedicated Palo Alto Networks support account for Cloud NGFW. In both cases, you will skip the registration option during the initial login but register your Cloud NGFW tenant in the Customer Support Portal.
    Use this procedure to register your Cloud NGFW tenant with your existing support account:
    1. Log in to the Cloud NGFW console.
    2. In the Enable Palo Alto Networks Support screen, select Yes.
      If you select No in the Enable Palo Alto Networks screen, you’ll need to use the Customer Support Portal (CSP) to register your Cloud NGFW tenant, or use the Cloud NGFW console to register with the CSP.
    3. Use the drop-down menu to select the support account.
    4. Click Next.
      If you have previously registered your customer support (CSP) account the drop-down is populated with existing accounts. If, however, you're a new user and don't yet have an account, use the CSP page to create an account. See Register Your Cloud NGFW Tenant using the Customer Support Portal and Register Your Cloud NGFW Tenant on the Customer Support Portal Using the Cloud NGFW Console.

    5. On the Register Product page in the Customer Support Portal, use the drop-down menu to select AWS Cloud NGFW for the Cloud Marketplace. Enter the Tenant ID and Serial Number and resolve the Captcha.
