ELA Add-on Activation

Learn how to activate your Advanced DNS Resolver service for use with an ELA (Enterprise License Agreement).

The add-on for ELA (Enterprise License Agreement) is a consumption model for large enterprises to assign subscriptions in bulk to assets purchased from Palo Alto Networks. ELA based solutions offer the flexibility to enable any of the following licenses that are supported for a tenant or TSG:

Start the ELA activation process from either the hub or Customer Support Portal.
- Customer Support Portal: Log in to your Customer Support Portal account, select ProductsEnterprise AgreementsLicenses and then click ELA-ADNSR Activation.
- Hub: Log into the hub and, from the tenant view, select ELA ActivationADNSR.
Completion of either activation process loads a magic link that opens the Advanced DNS Security Resolver activation page on the hub.
If you have multiple Customer Support Portal accounts, choose the Customer Support Account number that you want to use.
Allocate the product to the Recipient of your choice.
The tenant where Advanced DNS Security Resolver is to be activated (the recipient) must be configured to use Strata Logging Service.
You must migrate to the newer SLS service before the Advanced DNS Security Resolver can be enabled for the specified tenant, if you are currently using any of the following legacy products:
Cortex Data Lake
AIOps for NGFW
AIOps for NGFW Free
Additionally if you have any unactivated magic links, pending inflight or expired quotes, these can interfere with the activation process. You must resolve any such outstanding examples by requesting their removal or completing the request. Failure to do so will produce an error indicating service incompatibilities.
Please contact your Authorized Support Center or sales representative for more information on migrating from CDL to SLS.
