A WildFire appliance cluster is an interconnected group of WildFire appliances that pool resources to increase sample analysis and storage capacity, support larger groups of firewalls and simplify configuration and management of multiple WildFire appliances. For enhanced security and to maintain confidentiality of transmitted content, you can also encrypt communications between WildFire appliances in a cluster. For more information about WildFire clusters and deployment processes, refer to WildFire Appliance Clusters.

For clusters running PAN-OS 12.2.2 and later, Panorama provides additional management capabilities including color-coded cluster health monitoring, automated upgrade workflows, cross-cluster signature synchronization, and the ability to push cluster configuration updates to all managed clusters.

You can perform the following tasks using Panorama to manage your WildFire cluster.
