Configure a PA-7000 Series LPC for Logging per Virtual System

Create and configure an LPC subinterface for logging on multi-vsys.
If you have enabled multi-vsys capability on a PA-7000 Series firewall with a Log Processing Card (LPC) installed, you can configure logging for different virtual systems as described in the following workflow.
  1. Create a Log Card subinterface.
    1. Select
      Network
      Interfaces
      Ethernet
      and select the interface to be the Log Card interface.
    2. Enter the
      Interface Name
      .
    3. For
      Interface Type
      , select
      Log Card
      .
    4. Click
      OK
      .
  2. Add a subinterface for each tenant on the LPCs physical interface.
    1. Highlight the Ethernet interface that is a Log Card interface type and click
      Add Subinterface
      .
    2. For
      Interface Name
      , after the period, enter the subinterface assigned to the tenant’s virtual system.
    3. For
      Tag
      , enter a VLAN tag value.
      Make the tag the same as the subinterface number for ease of use, but it could be a different number.
    4. (
      Optional
      ) Enter a
      Comment
      .
    5. On the
      Config
      tab, in the
      Assign Interface to Virtual System
      field, select the virtual system to which the LPC subinterface is assigned. Alternatively, you can click
      Virtual Systems
      to add a new virtual system.
    6. Click
      OK
      .
  3. Enter the addresses assigned to the subinterface, and configure the default gateway.
    1. Select the
      Log Card Forwarding
      tab, and do one or both of the following:
      • For the IPv4 section, enter the
        IP Address
        and
        Netmask
        assigned to the subinterface. Enter the
        Default Gateway
        (the next hop where packets will be sent that have no known next hop address in the Routing Information Base [RIB]).
      • For the IPv6 section, enter the
        IPv6 Address
        assigned to the subinterface. Enter the
        IPv6 Default Gateway
        .
    2. Click
      OK
      .
  4. Commit your changes.
    Click
    OK
    and
    Commit
    .
  5. If you haven’t already done so, configure the remaining service routes for the virtual system.
