Azure Cloud NGFW

In the doco I see that Cloud NGFW for Azure can automatically scale to 40 instances and support 100Gbps in a vNet. I do not see any details for the config of autoscaling. Do I need to configure the autoscaling or does it just happen?

Sorry I realised I posted this in the AWS section, reposting in Azure section.

C-NGFW is a managed service offering so autoscaling happens automatically. User doesn't need to configure anything manually.

Thanks,

@C.Haisell It happens automatically only thing you need to make sure is you use /24 subnet for the Private IP's.

Also if you managing the Rules via Panorama make sure you have rule to allow /24 subnet for connection to the Panorama.

See Palo Alto Cloud NGFW(Part 1): Overview, Use cases and Demo as Azure Cloud NGFW is based on VM instances between external and internal load balancer while AWS Cloud NGFW is based on AWS Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB).

So it is the same as if you are building your own Palo Alto NGFW VM between external and internal LB but you don't need to manage it.
