Use a Log Forwarding profile to centrally monitor log information
Follow these steps to configure a Log Forwarding profile.
  1. Go to
    Manage
    Configuration
    NGFW and Prisma Access
    Objects
    Log Forwarding
    .
  2. Select
    Add Log Forwarding Profile
    .
  3. Configure the settings in this table:
    Log Forwarding Profile Settings
    Description
    Name
    Enter a name (up to 64 characters) to identify the profile. This name appears in the list of Log Forwarding profiles when defining Security rules. The name is case-sensitive, must be unique, and can contain only letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, and underscores.
    Description
    Enter a description to explain the purpose of this Log Forwarding profile.
    Match List (unlabeled)
    Add
    one or more match list profiles (up to 64) that specify forwarding destinations, log attribute-based filters to control which logs are forwarded, and actions to perform on the logs (such as automatic tagging). Complete the following two fields (Name and Description) for each match list profile.
    Name (match list profile)
    Enter a name (up to 31 characters) to identify the match list profile.
    Description (match list profile)
    Enter a description (up to 1,023 characters) to explain the purpose of this match list profile.
    Log Type
    Select the type of logs to which this match list profile applies: authentication (
    auth
    ),
    data
    ,
    gtp
    ,
    sctp
    ,
    threat
    ,
    traffic
    ,
    tunnel
    ,
    URL
    , or
    WildFire
    .
    Filter
    By default,
    All Logs
    of the selected
    Log Type
    are forwarded. To forward a subset of the logs, select an existing filter from the drop-down or select
    Filter Builder
    to add a new filter. For each query in a new filter, specify the following fields and
    Add
    the query:
    • Connector
      —Select the connector logic (and/or) for the query. Select
      Negate
      if you want to apply negation to the logic. For example, to avoid forwarding logs from an untrusted zone, select
      Negate
      , select
      Zone
      as the Attribute, select
      equal
      as the Operator, and enter the name of the untrusted zone in the Value column.
    • Attribute
      —Select a log attribute. The available attributes depend on the
      Log Type
      .
    • Operator
      —Select the criterion to determine whether the attribute applies (such as
      equal
      ). The available criteria depend on the
      Log Type
      .
    • Value
      —Specify the attribute value to match.
    To display or export the logs that the filter matches,
    View Filtered Logs
    , which provides the same options as the
    Monitoring
    tab pages (such as
    Monitoring
    Logs
    Traffic
    ).
    SNMP
    Add one or more SNMP Trap server profiles to forward logs as SNMP traps.
    Email
    Add one or more Email server profiles to forward logs as email notifications.
    Syslog
    Add one or more Syslog server profiles to forward logs as syslog messages.
    HTTP
    Add one or more HTTP server profiles to forward logs as HTTP requests.
    Built-in Actions
    You can select from two types of built-in actions when you
    Add
    an action to perform—Tagging and Integration.
    • Tagging
      —Add or remove a tag to the source or destination IP address in a log entry automatically and register the IP address and tag mapping to a User-ID agent on Panorama, or to a remote User-ID agent so that you can respond to an event and dynamically enforce Security policy. The ability to tag an IP address and dynamically enforce policy using Dynamic Address Groups gives you better visibility, context, and control for consistently enforcing Security policy irrespective of where the IP address moves across your network.
      Configure the following settings:
      • Add
        an action and enter a name to describe it.
      • Select the target IP address you want to tag—
        Source Address
        or
        Destination Address
        .
      You can take an action for all log types that include a source or destination IP address in the log entry. You can tag the source IP address only in Correlation logs and HIP Match logs; you can't configure an action for system logs and configuration logs because the log type does not include an IP address in the log entry.
      • Select the action—
        Add Tag
        or
        Remove Tag
        .
      • Select whether to register the IP address and tag mapping to the
        Local User-ID
        agent, or to a
        Remote User-ID
        agent.
      • To register the IP address and tag mapping to a
        Remote User-ID
        agent, select the HTTP server profile that will enable forwarding.
      • Configure the IP-Tag
        Timeout
        to set, in minutes, the amount of time that IP address-to-tag mapping is maintained. Setting the timeout to 0 means that the IP-Tag mapping does not timeout (range is 0 to 43200 (30 days); default is 0).
        You can only configure a timeout with the
        Add Tag
        action.
      • Enter or select the
        Tags
        you want to apply or remove from the target source or destination IP address.
    • Integration
      —Only available on the VM-Series on Azure. This option allows you to forward the selected logs to the Azure Security Center using the
      Azure-Security-Center-Integration
      action.
    To add a device to the quarantine list based on the Log Forwarding profile filter, select
    Quarantine
    .
  4. Save
    your configuration.
  5. Select
    Push Config
    to save your configuration and deploy it to your network.
