Configure Key Limits for Scheduled Reports
Configure the maximum and minimum key limits for scheduled
reports on the Panorama™ management server.
The Panorama™ management server and the PA-7000
Series firewall reports utilize keys (unique values on which you
can aggregate) from one or more Log Collector to build and generate
reports. To improve the accuracy of scheduled reports, you can now
configurable the maximum and minimum key limits. By increasing the number
of keys supported, scheduled reports can now include more data that
can be aggregated, sorted, and grouped.
The default minimum
key limit is based on the Sort By and Group
By values configured for the scheduled report using
the following calculation:
<Sort By value> x 100 x <Group By value>For
example, if Sort By is configured as Top
25 and Group By is configured
as 5 Groups, the default minimum key limit
is 12,500 keys. The Group By value is not
factored into the calculation when set to None. The
default minimum key limit is limited to and cannot exceed the maximum
key limit.
You can only configure the key limits for
the M-Series appliances and Panorama virtual appliances. The PA-7000
series key limits are not configurable.
The supported
maximum and minimum keys are increased for the following Panorama
models:
Panorama Model | Minimum Key Limit | Maximum Key Limit |
|---|---|---|
PA-7000 Series | 1,000 - Default, not configurable | 25,000 - Default, not configurable |
M-200 | 15,000 | 50,000 |
M-500 | 15,000 | 50,000 |
M-600 | 15,000 | 50,000 |
Panorama Virtual Appliance in Legacy mode | 5,000 | 25,000 |
Panorama Virtual Appliance (all supported
models) | 15,000 | 50,000 |
- Log in to the Panorama CLI.Configure the maximum key limit using the following command:You can set the maximum key limit between 0 and 50, where 50 equals 50,000 keys. In this example, we are setting the maximum key limit for the Panorama virtual appliance to 30,000 keys.
admin@Panorama> request max-report-keys set limit <Key Limit>
![]()
Configure the minimum key limit using the following command:You can set the minimum key limit between 0 and 15, where 15 equals 15,000 keys. In this example, we are setting the minimum key limit for the Panorama virtual appliance to 15,000 keys.admin@Panorama> request min-report-keys set limit <Key Limit>
![]()
(Optional) Set the minimum key limit to the default setting.admin@Panorama> request min-report-keys set limit 0
Commit the new maximum and minimum key limits to Panorama using the following command:admin@Panorama> commit-all
