Destination Port (dport) | Destination port utilized by the session. |
NAT Source Port (natsport) | Post-NAT source port. |
NAT Destination Port (natdport) | Post-NAT destination port. |
Flags (flags) | 32-bit field that provides details on session;
this field can be decoded by AND-ing the values with the logged
value:
|
IP Protocol (proto) | IP protocol associated with the session. |
Action (action) | Action taken for the session; values are
alert, allow, block-url, block-continue, continue, block-override,
override-lockout, override.
|
URL/Filename (misc) | Field with variable length. A URL has a
maximum of 1023 characters. The actual URI when the subtype
is url. URL when Threat Category is domain-edl . |
Threat/Content Name (threatid) | Palo Alto Networks identifier for known
and custom threats. It is a description string followed by a 64-bit
numerical identifier in parentheses for some Subtypes:
If
the domain EDL field
is populated, then this field is populated with the same value. Threat
ID ranges for virus detection, WildFire signature feed, and DNS
C2 signatures used in previous releases have been replaced with
permanent, globally unique IDs. Refer
to the Threat/Content Type (subtype) and Threat Category (thr_category)
field names to create updated reports, filter threat logs, and ACC
activity. |
Category (category) | For URL Subtype, it is the URL Category;
For WildFire subtype, it is the verdict on the file and is either
‘malware’, ‘phishing’, ‘grayware’, or ‘benign’; For other subtypes,
the value is ‘any’. |
Severity (severity) | Severity associated with the threat; values
are informational, low, medium, high, critical. |
Direction (direction) | Indicates the direction of the attack:
|
Sequence Number (seqno) | A 64-bit log entry identifier incremented
sequentially. Each log type has a unique number space. |

to Panorama. |
Source Country (srcloc) | Source country or Internal region for private
addresses. Maximum length is 32 bytes. |
Destination Country (dstloc) | Destination country or Internal region for
private addresses. Maximum length is 32 bytes. |
Content Type (contenttype) | Content type of the HTTP response data.
Maximum length 32 bytes. |
PCAP ID (pcap_id) | The packet capture (pcap) ID is a 64 bit
unsigned integral denoting an ID to correlate threat pcap files
with extended pcaps taken as a part of that flow. All threat logs
will contain either a pcap_id of 0 (no associated pcap), or an ID
referencing the extended pcap file. |
File Digest (filedigest) | Only for WildFire subtype; all other types
do not use this field The filedigest string shows the binary
hash of the file sent to be analyzed by the WildFire service. |
Cloud (cloud) | Only for WildFire subtype; all other types
do not use this field. The cloud string displays the FQDN
of either the WildFire appliance (private) or the WildFire cloud
(public) from where the file was uploaded for analysis. |
URL Index (url_idx) | When an application uses TCP keepalives
to keep a connection open for a length of time, all the log entries
for that session have a single session ID. In such cases, when you
have a single threat log (and session ID) that includes multiple
URL entries, the url_idx is a counter that allows you to correlate
the order of each log entry within the single session. For
example, to learn the URL of a file that the firewall forwarded
to WildFire for analysis, locate the session ID and the url_idx
from the WildFire Submissions log and search for the same session
ID and url_idx in your URL filtering logs. The log entry that matches
the session ID and url_idx will contain the URL of the file that
was forwarded to WildFire. |
User Agent (user_agent) | The User Agent field specifies the web browser
that the user used to access the URL, for example Internet Explorer.
This information is sent in the HTTP request to the server. |
File Type (filetype) | Only for WildFire subtype; all other types
do not use this field. Specifies the type of file that the
firewall forwarded for WildFire analysis. |
X-Forwarded-For (xff) | The X-Forwarded-For field in the HTTP header
contains the IP address of the user who requested the web page.
It allows you to identify the IP address of the user, which is useful
particularly if you have a proxy server on your network that replaces
the user IP address with its own address in the source IP address
field of the packet header. Based on different appliance
implementations, the XFF field may contain non-IP address values. |
Referer (referer) | The Referer field in the HTTP header contains
the URL of the web page that linked the user to another web page;
it is the source that redirected (referred) the user to the web
page that is being requested. |
Sender (sender) | Specifies the name of the sender of an email. |
Subject (subject) | Specifies the subject of an email. |
Recipient (recipient) | Specifies the name of the receiver of an
email. |
Report ID (reportid) | Only for Data Filtering and WildFire subtype;
all other types do not use this field. Identifies the analysis
request on the firewall, WildFire cloud, or the WildFire appliance. |
Device Group Hierarchy (dg_hier_level_1
to dg_hier_level_4) | A sequence of identification numbers that
indicate the device group’s location within a device group hierarchy.
The firewall (or virtual system) generating the log includes the
identification number of each ancestor in its device group hierarchy.
The shared device group (level 0) is not included in this structure. If
the log values are 12, 34, 45, 0, it means that the log was generated
by a firewall (or virtual system) that belongs to device group 45,
and its ancestors are 34, and 12. To view the device group names
that correspond to the value 12, 34 or 45, use one of the following
