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.
