Create Template(s), Template Stack(s),
and Device Group(s) on Panorama
To manage the VM-Series firewalls for NSX-V
using Panorama, the firewalls must belong to a device group and
a template that is a member of a template stack. Device groups allow
you to assemble firewalls that need similar policies and objects
as a logical unit; the configuration is defined using the
Objects
and
Policies
tabs
on Panorama. Use template stacks to configure the settings that
are required for the VM-Series firewalls to operate on the network
and associate; the configuration is defined using the
Device
and
Network
tabs
on Panorama. And each template stack with zones used in your NSX-V
configuration on Panorama must be associated with a service definition;
at a minimum, you must create a zone within the template stack so
that the NSX-V Manager can redirect traffic to the VM-Series firewall.
Each
virtual wire zone belonging to the NSX-V-related template becomes available
as a
service profile
on the Service Composer on the
NSX-V Manager. When you create NSX-V-related zone on Panorama, Panorama pushes
the zone as a part of the template stack configuration to the firewall,
and the firewall automatically creates a pair of virtual wire subinterfaces,
for example ethernet1/1.3 and ethernet 1/2.3, to isolate traffic
for a tenant or sub-tenant. On the firewall, you can then
Create
Security Groups and Steering Rules to secure traffic that
arrives on the virtual wire subinterface pair that maps to the zone.

- Create the zone(s) for each template.Each zone is mapped to a service profile on NSX-V Manager. To qualify, a zone must be of the virtual wire type and a template associated with a service definition.For a single-tenant deployment, create one zone. If you have multi-tenant deployment, create a zone for each sub-tenant.You can add up to 32 zones in each template.
