Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
  • Prisma Access CloudBlade (Panorama Managed).
  • Prisma Access CloudBlade (Cloud Managed).
  • Prisma SD-WAN License.
  • Prisma Access for Networks Subscription.
  • Supported Cloud plugin Versions.
  • Prisma Access CloudBlade (Cloud Managed) version 3.x.x and later.
  • Prisma Access CloudBlade (Panorama Managed) versions 3.x.x and 4.x.x.
After the integration is set up, operations can be performed using the CloudBlade panel. These operations have various effects on the tunnels and configurations in Prisma SD-WAN, the Panorama and Cloud Managed CloudBlades, and Prisma Access.
  • Set the CloudBlade to Enabled
    This is the standard, expected mode of operation for the CloudBlade. The CloudBlade will run, find any new Sites and Interfaces with the appropriate tags, and configure the integration on CloudBlades and Prisma Access.
  • Set the CloudBlade to Paused
    Pausing the CloudBlade stops all future integration runs, but leaves any created objects intact. This stops any future objects from getting created, and also prevents removal of any unconfigured and untagged objects.
    When performing a reboot or any maintenance activity, it's recommended to pause the CloudBlade.
  • Set the CloudBlade to Disabled
    Disabling the CloudBlade tells the system to remove and delete all configurations created by the CloudBlade. This can cause communication interruptions if the policy isn't set to use other paths. Note that IPsec policies, IKE policies, and Prisma SD-WAN Endpoints and Service and DC groups are not automatically deleted and must be removed manually.
  • Uninstall the CloudBlade
    Uninstalling the CloudBlade removes the configuration for the CloudBlade and immediately stops any changes by the CloudBlade. Uninstalling the CloudBlade does not automatically remove configuration from all sites and objects. CloudBlades can be uninstalled and reinstalled to facilitate upgrades or downgrades to different versions without traffic interruption. To completely remove all items, set the CloudBlade to Disabled for 2-3 Integration Run periods before uninstalling the CloudBlade.
