BGP Filtering and Route Metric Support for Prisma Access

BGP filtering and route metric support on service connections in Prisma Access.
For customers who need precise control over routing, Prisma Access offers new BGP capabilities to enhance network traffic and improve efficiency. The platform provides a UI-based configuration option on Panorama® and Cloud Management, enabling you to filter BGP prefixes advertised to remote networks (RNs) and service connections (SCs). This includes individual filtering options for all outbound mobile user, RN, and SC prefixes, as well as the ability to filter specific prefixes per RN and SC onboarding. BGP filtering can be configured per RN and SC BGP peer and also supports a global tenant-level configuration. Filtering options include both prefix and BGP community-based criteria.
This update allows you to create and apply custom routing policies to your service connections, including both regular and Colo-Connect connections. This functionality enables you to optimize traffic flow, improve network efficiency, and strengthen your security posture.
The BGP filtering and route metric support is integrated with the existing Prisma Access security platform. This means you can now leverage advanced routing capabilities alongside Palo Alto Networks' comprehensive suite of threat prevention features.
