Google QUIC Disconnects

We started getting complaints from users that various Google services were showing intermittent disconnects. I think we've tracked it down to the QUIC protocol not being accurately identified by the PAN firewalls and getting blocked. I see 443/udp traffic from the hosts in question getting dropped as "unidentified-udp" mixed in with the allowed ...

Reporting on Security/NAT Polcies and Hit Counts

Is there a way to export the current Security and NAT Policies to CSV, or even just PDF? I need to clean up a dirty firewall that I inherited, but I need other teams to let me know what is active/inactive.

Hi, any of you who knows if there is a whitepaper or such on how to generate a report or otherwise pick out the numbers/figures/graphs for how much SSL-traffic you got vs non SSL-traffic through a PA device? That is both in bandwidth and number of concurrent sessions over time.

Resolved! Multiple Tunnels with 0.0.0.0/0 proxy-ids

The scenario is 3 firewalls, with PA-HO acting as the hub and PA-1 and PA-2 as the branch sites. The Branch sites connect to the head office network via ipsec tunnels to PA-HO and vice-versa. Due to multple dis-contigous subnets on the branches, it was decided to use 0.0.0.0/0 proxy-ids for the tunnels. This was proven to work for the PA-HO and ...

Resolved! Log timestamps

Hi, My query is about how the Palo Alto firewall timestamps logs when it sends them to a syslog server. Does it stamp the logs with UTC (GMT) time or does it use the configured local time as the timestamp? I notice when reviewing logs on the device it uses local time, however I'm unsure what they use once sent off the device. Thanks.
