Add a Device Group

Select
Panorama
Device Groups
, and click
Add
.
Enter a unique
Name
and a
Description
to identify the device group.
In the Devices section, select check boxes to assign firewalls to the group. To search a long list of firewalls, use the Filters.
You can assign any firewall to only one device group. You can assign each virtual system on a firewall to a different device group.
In the Reference Template section,
Add
any templates or template stacks with objects referenced by the device group configuration.
You must assign the appropriate template or template stack references to the device group in order to successfully associate the template or template stack to the device group. This allows you to reference objects configured in a template or template stack without adding an unrelated device to a template stack.
Skip this step if the device group configuration does not reference any objects configured in a template or template stack.
(
Optional
) Select
Group HA Peers
for firewalls that are HA peers.
You can only group managed firewall HA peers if they are in the same device group.
The firewall name of the passive or active-secondary peer is in parentheses. Grouping HA peers is a visual change and no configuration change occurs.
Select the
Parent Device Group
(default is
Shared
) that will be just above the device group you are creating in the device group hierarchy.
If your policy rules will reference users and groups, assign a
Master
firewall.
This will be the only firewall in the device group from which Panorama gathers username and user group information.
Click
OK
to save your changes.
Select
Commit
Commit and Push
and then
Commit and Push
your changes to the Panorama configuration and to the device group you added.
