Learn how you allocate bandwidth per site for a Prisma Access deployment.
Managing remote network capacity using aggregate bandwidth licensing is
complex, often requiring difficult resource estimation and manual redundancy
configuration across compute regions. Prisma® Access 6.0 introduces
site-based licensing for Remote Networks,
enhancing flexibility and simplifying deployment for branch sites. This licensing
model allows you to allocate your sites with predefined bandwidth capacities,
ranging from 25 Mbps to 2.5 Gbps. By moving away from aggregate bandwidth-based
licensing, you can more easily estimate and allocate resources for your remote
sites.
With site-based licensing, you no longer need to pre-allocate bandwidth to
specific Prisma Access compute regions or configure redundancy manually. This
approach reduces complexity in network planning and provides a more straightforward
way to manage and scale your branch sites.
Using this model, you can focus on the number and types of sites needed
rather than estimating total bandwidth consumption across your network.
Site-based licensing in Prisma Access aligns better with your
organizational structure and growth plans, providing a more intuitive and scalable
approach to securing and connecting your branch sites. This licensing model aims to
enhance your experience in deploying and managing Prisma Access, offering greater
control and efficiency in resource allocation across your distributed network
infrastructure.
Additionally, a simplified
onboarding workflow for Prisma Access
further reduces complexity by accelerating remote network setup.
