Manually Add and Delete Devices From the Quarantine List

Learn how to manually add devices to the quarantine list from various pages or logs or using the Host ID to identify the device.
You can add a device manually from either the quarantine pages, from the GlobalProtect, Threat, Traffic, or Unified logs, or by using an API. You can also manually delete the device from the quarantine pages, as shown in the following steps.
  • To manually add a device to the quarantine list from the
    Device Quarantine
    page, select
    Device
    Device Quarantine
    or
    Panorama
    Device Quarantine
    and
    Add
    the device.
    Add the
    Host ID
    and, optionally, the
    Serial Number
    of the device. GlobalProtect uses the Host ID to identify the device.
  • To add a device to the quarantine list from the GlobalProtect, Threat, Traffic, or Unified logs, complete the following steps.
    1. (
      Threat, Traffic, and Unified Logs Only
      ) To add Host ID information to the Traffic, Threat, and Unified logs, select
      Policies
      Security
      and
      Add
      a security policy rule; then, select
      Quarantine
      as the
      Source Device
      for
      Source
      traffic.
      A Host ID is required to add a device to the quarantine list. When a user connects to the network with the GlobalProtect app, GlobalProtect automatically adds Host ID information for the connected endpoint to the GlobalProtect log. The host ID value varies by endpoint type:
      • Windows—Machine GUID stored in the Windows registry (HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Cryptography\MachineGuid)
      • macOS—MAC address of the first built-in physical network interface
      • Android—Android ID
      • iOS—UDID
      • Chrome—GlobalProtect assigned unique alphanumeric string with length of 32 characters.
      If you do not know the host ID, you can correlate the user-ID to the host ID in the HIP Match logs:
      • Select
        Monitor
        Logs
        HIP Match
        .
      • Filter the HIP match logs for the source user associated with the endpoint.
      • Open the HIP match log and identify the host ID under
        OS
        Host ID
        and optionally the hostname under
        Host Information
        Machine Name
        .
      For GlobalProtect to automatically add Host ID information to the Traffic, Threat, or Unified logs, you must add a policy rule that has
      Quarantine
      selected for source traffic.
      To make sure that you are adding the Host ID for all devices you want to quarantine (either manually or automatically), create a security policy that allows all traffic and specify
      Quarantine
      as the
      Source Device
      . It does not matter what order you place this policy in the list of policies for it to work.
    2. Right-click the
      Host ID
      associated with the device and click
      Block Device
      .
      If the
      Host ID
      column does not display, select the header of any column and then select the
      Host ID
      field to display the Host ID.
  • To create an API to manually add the devices, see the instructions in the PAN-OS and Panorama API Usage Guide.
  • After your administrator has performed remediation on the device, you can delete it from the list by selecting
    Device
    Device Quarantine
    for next-generation firewalls or
    Panorama
    Device Quarantine
    for Panorama appliances, selecting one or more devices, then selecting
    Delete
    .
