PAN-OS & Panorama

PAN-OS 10.0 and later supports individually configurable DNS signature sources, which enables you to define separate policy actions as well as a log severity level for a given signature source. This requires you to configure both the policy action and the log severity for each available DNS signature source to bypass DNS Security. Additionally, you must also remove the DNS exceptions entries for the DNS Security to be fully bypassed. On PAN-OS 9.1, you can simply set the policy action for Palo Alto Networks DNS Security to an action of allow.
