Why is pan-db downloaded?

L0 Member

Hello, everyone.

 

I'm using only ATP(Advanced Threat Prevention) license for AWS firewall.
However, I see PAN-DB is continuously being downloaded in system log.
Why is PAN-DB still being downloaded even though I am not using URL license?

 

I was using pan-os-10.2.8-h5 and tried upgrading to 10.2.11, but the same problem occurred.

I think (this is an educated guess, i haven't seen a customer without URL filtering for over a decade) this is due to advanced DNS protection also using part of the URL filtering database to categorize dns lookups
