Cloud NGFW endpoints for AWS

nredd149_OPT — Wed, 08 Nov 2023 17:40:37 GMT

Hello,

Did anyone reach the limit of 50 endpoints on the firewall service for the aws VPC's?

Also i was told that this 50 limit can be extended to 200. Is it true? if so how to extend.

If we can extended what are the limitations on reaching the 200 limit, any drawbacks to the firewall service.

Regards,

Narendar.

Hi @nredd149_OPT ,

I don't have experience with Cloud NGFW for AWS, but looking at the other limitations like number of rules and objects. My guess it has to be related to VM capacity that is being deployed. And to extend those limits means to increase the VM capacity that is deployed behind the scene.

Hi Aleksandar,

Thank you for the reply. But yea they both independent here in the cloud NGFW model. Endpoints and EC2 are completely different in AWS.

Hi @nredd149_OPT ,

I am not refering to the EC2 instance itself, but the VM-series capacity license that is being applied.
For example look at the maximum number of rules and object supported on VM with lowest resources - https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/products/product-comparison?chosen=vm-series%2520(2%2520vcpu,%25204.5%2520gb),vm-series%2520(2%2520vcpu,%25205.5%2520gb),vm-series%2520(2%2520vcpu,%25206.5%2520gb)
