- Configure
interfaces to enable your firewall to operate across multiple deployment
types.
On the Ethernet tab, use the Show
local device configs to view the various configuration
present on the local Firewall and Strata Cloud Manager. You can also configure Layer 3
sub-interfaces to use PPPoE for IPv4 connections, enabling the firewall
to establish a connection to an ISP using an 802.1Q VLAN
tag.
- Zones
Segment your network
into functional or organizational zones to minimize your attack
surface.
- Virtual Wire
Integrate a
firewall interface into a topology so that the two connected interfaces on
the firewall don’t need to do any switching or routing.
- IPSec Tunnels
Authenticate
and encrypt IP packets as they traverse the tunnel.
- DHCP
Automatically assign IP
addresses and essential network parameters to client devices connecting to
your TCP/IP network.
- DNS Proxy
Configure the
firewall to act as an intermediary between DNS clients and servers.
- GlobalProtect
Enable cloud-managed NGFWs as GlobalProtect
gateways and portals for secure remote access to users everywhere.
- Device Setup
Configure
service routes, connection settings, allowed services, and administrative
access settings for firewall management and auxiliary interfaces.
- Proxy
Consolidate proxy and
firewall functionality in one device.
- Administrators
Administrative accounts specify roles and
authentication methods for the administrators of Palo Alto Networks
firewalls. Every Palo Alto Networks firewall has a predefined default
administrative account (admin) that provides full read-write access (also
known as superuser access) to the firewall.
