Configure a Loopback Interface
Configure a loopback interface to identify devices.
Contact your account team to enable Cloud Management for NGFWs using
Strata Cloud Manager.

Loopback is a logical, virtual interface used to emulate a WAN port to provide LAN functionality.
You can free up a physical port previously used for LAN and WAN configuration by
designating a loopback interface. You can configure a maximum of four loopback
interfaces per device.
- Log in to Strata Cloud Manager.
- Select ManageConfigurationNGFW and Prisma AccessDevice SettingsInterfacesLoopback and select the Configuration Scope where you want to create the loopback interface.Select a firewall from your Folders or select Snippets to configure the loopback interface in a snippet.If you select a folder or select a snippet, you create a loopback interface variable that must be assigned at the device level.
- Add Loopback.
- Enter the Interface Name.By default, all loopback interfaces are prefixed with loopback. The loopback interface name supports numeric characters only.
- (Optional) Enter a Description.
- (Folders and Snippets only; Optional) Assign the interface to a Logical Router.See Configure a Logical Router for more information.Selecting a global router will prompt a message asking if you want to override and remove the inherited objects. Click Yes to confirm.
- (Folders and Snippets only; Optional) Assign the interface to a Zone.Create New to create a new zone. See Zone Protection and DoS Protection for more information.Selecting an inherited zone overrides the previous settings and removes any inherited objects. Any changes made to the global folder are no longer inherited in a top-down manner. A message appears, indicating that the interface settings will be overridden and the inherited objects from the parent folder will be removed on all firewalls. When you save your changes, a confirmation message appears. If you confirm, the zone is overridden.
- Add static IP addresses to configure the interface IPv4 settings.Only Static IP addresses are supported.
- Save.
- Push Config to push your configuration changes.
