Route Summarization for Dynamic Privilege Access

Use route summarization for Dynamic Privilege Access to reduce the demand on basic routers that have limited capacity.
On Dynamic Privilege Access enabled Prisma Access tenants, you can summarize routes when advertising the Mobile User (MU) routes to your on-premises network. Route summarization is beneficial for enterprises that have on-premises equipment that has limited capacity such as basic cloud routers. By reducing the demand on these devices, route summarization ensures that the devices won't exceed their route capacity when communicating with the data center.
To enable route summarization, configure global summary pools that consist of lists of large IP pools that can be used across multiple projects. Then, enable route summarization in the Prisma Access service connection. When a user uses the Prisma Access Agent to connect to a project that has an IP address within the range of the configured global summary pools, the service connection will advertise the global summary pool instead of the smaller project-level route. This helps reduce the number of routes that are sent to the network.
