Enable ZTNA Connector

Learn how to configure a ZTNA Connector in Prisma Access.
Where Can I Use This?
What Do I Need?
  • Prisma Access (Cloud Management)
  • Prisma Access (Panorama Managed)
  • Prisma Access 4.0
    Prisma Access 5.0 supports wildcards and IP subnet-based app targets.
  • ZTNA Connector Add-On license
    Prisma Access Enterprise licenses include two Connectors and 10 Apps without the Add-On license in Enterprise and ZTNA Edition licenses. In the Business and Business Premium edition, the licenses include two Connectors and one App. This functionality is provided for the purpose of trying out ZTNA Connectors in your environment. To deploy more apps and connectors, purchase the add-on license.
Before you can set up ZTNA Connector, you must enable it within Prisma Access. Before you enable ZTNA Connector, do the following:
  • Identify your Application IP and Connector IP address blocks. You must reserve a separate address pool to reserve for use within Prisma Access internally to route traffic to the connectors and private applications you’ll be onboarding. Prisma Access resolves the FQDNs of the applications you onboard to ZTNA Connector to the IP addresses in the Application IP address block. Similarly, Prisma Access uses the Connector IP address block to route traffic from the remote network or mobile user to the appropriate ZTNA Connector.
    You should reserve at least a /16 subnet for the address pool. Use RFC 1918 or RFC 6598 addresses. You can specify an RFC 1918 address pool during ZTNA Connector setup instead of RFC 6598; however, you cannot change the address pool type back to RFC 6598 after you specify RFC 1918.

Cloud Management

Learn how to configure a ZTNA Connector in Prisma Access.
Use the following workflow to enable ZTNA Connector in Cloud Managed Prisma Access.
  1. Configure the IP address blocks that Prisma Access will use internally to route traffic to the ZTNA Connector and the private apps you onboard.
    You must define separate IP address blocks for your connectors and your applications and the blocks cannot overlap with each other, with the Prisma Access infrastructure subnet, or with you GlobalProtect IP address pool.
    • Select
      Settings
      Prisma Access Setup
      Shared
      and Edit the
      Infrastructure Settings
      .
      If you're using Strata Cloud Manager, go to
      Workflows
      Prisma Access Setup
      Prisma Access
      Infrastructure Settings
      .
    • Add
      ZTNA Connectors Application IP Blocks
      .
      You can add a single Application IP Block, or multiple blocks depending on your deployment. For example, enter 10.64.10.0/24 and 10.64.11.0/24. You can also
      Advertise Application IP blocks to Remote Networks
      to provide remote network access.
      Use RFC 1918 or RFC 6598 addresses. You can specify an RFC 1918 address pool during ZTNA Connector setup instead of RFC 6598; however, you cannot change the address pool type back to RFC 6598 after you specify RFC 1918.
    • Add
      ZTNA Connectors Connector IP Blocks
      that Prisma Access will use internally to route traffic between mobile users, remote networks and the connector VMs in your data centers.
      You can add a single Connector IP Block, or multiple blocks depending on your deployment. For example, enter 100.65.10.0/24 and 100.65.11.0/24.
    • Click
      Save
      to save the IP address block configuration and then
      Commit
      and push the configuration.
  2. Launch ZTNA Connector from the Prisma SASE Platform.
    • Log in to
      Prisma SASE Platform
      .
    • Select
      Settings
      ZTNA Connector
      .
      If you're using Strata Cloud Manager, go to
      Workflows
      ZTNA Connector
      .
    • If you haven't done so already,
      Enable ZTNA Connector
      .
    • Prisma Access begins setting up the infrastructure for the ZTNA Connector. This may take a few minutes.
    • When onboarding finishes, the ZTNA Connector Overview displays.

Panorama

Learn how to configure a ZTNA Connector in Panorama-managed Prisma Access.
Use the following workflow to enable ZTNA Connector in Panorama Managed Prisma Access.
  1. Configure the IP address blocks that Prisma Access will use internally to route traffic to the ZTNA Connector and the private apps you onboard.
    • Select
      Panorama
      Cloud Services
      Configuration
      Service Setup
      and Edit the
      Settings
      .
    • On the
      ZTNA Connector
      tab
      Add
      an
      Application IP Block
      .
      You can add a single Application IP Block, or multiple blocks depending on your deployment. For example, if 10.64.10.0/24 and 10.64.11.0/24. You can also
      Enable Advertise Application IP Block to Remote Networks
      .
      Use RFC 1918 or RFC 6598 addresses. You can specify an RFC 1918 address pool during ZTNA Connector setup instead of RFC 6598; however, you cannot change the address pool type back to RFC 6598 after you specify RFC 1918.
    • Set the
      Connector IP Blocks
      that Prisma Access will use internally to route traffic between mobile users, remote networks and the connector VMs in your data centers.
      You can add a single Connector IP Block, or multiple blocks depending on your deployment. For example, enter 10.65.10.0/24 and 10.65.11.0/24.
    • Click
      OK
      to save the IP address block configuration and then
      Commit
      and push the configuration.
  2. Launch ZTNA Connector from the Cloud Services Plugin on Panorama.
    • Select
      Panorama
      Cloud Services

    • From the Prisma Access app, select
      Settings
      ZTNA Connector
      .
    • If you haven't already done so,
      Enable ZTNA Connector
