Telemetry Autoenablement

Devices running PAN-OS 11.2.8 or later now support the telemetry autoenablement feature.
Telemetry autoenablement for Palo Alto Networks devices streamlines the activation and configuration of telemetry, eliminating complex workflows and manual setup. This feature ensures that upon device onboarding, telemetry is automatically enabled and configured to stream data to the correct data residency region, determined by your location or existing configurations.
Strata Cloud Manager or hub now manages telemetry settings, rather than individual Panorama or firewall devices. These services store information for all devices within a tenant service group (TSG), simplifying and automating telemetry configuration. This approach removes operational hurdles, enabling full utilization of telemetry's benefits while maintaining control over data sharing preferences.
Consistent telemetry data streaming provides enhanced security, faster security responses, and access to advanced features through critical threat insights. Telemetry autoenablement ensures your devices send valuable diagnostic and usage information, significantly improving support case resolution times and offering real-time insights into performance, usage, and potential issues.
You have the ability to manage your telemetry settings at the TSG level, including the option to change the telemetry tier from Full to Diagnostic through the hub interface or Strata Cloud Manager. This tiered approach ensures you can choose the level of information shared while adhering to data privacy requirements. Additionally, all telemetry configuration changes are logged for audit purposes, assisting with compliance and security policy adherence.
