Syslog via TCP?

I note that the PA-2050 units I have running 4.1.7 PanOS generate their syslogs as UDP/514. Is there any way to tell the unit to use TCP for syslog messages? Our SIEM/syslog collector (AlienVault) seems to be missing some of the syslog messages we (supposedly, according to security team) sent to it from the PA-2050 for whatever reason. We are e...

Alarms - Log DB size over threshold

Hi guys,It looks like our PA-2050 is not purging old log files from the database. When we log in to the Web UI we get alarms like this:According to the documentation this error shouldn't occur. The PA box should automatically purge old log entries when the DB reaches 80% of the total DB size. Any ideas what we could do/check here?Thanks,Oliver

Resolved! Has anyone ever seen this on the physical interfaces.

Was working for a while the the interface decided to go down and I kept getting this warning every time I commit.

Both are the same so I do not understand why I keep getting this message. e1/21 is green but e1/22 is red and will not come up.Warning: ...

Resolved! PA200 process running at 100%

Hi there,I've seen a task called pan_task taking up 100% cpu on two of my PA200's. Is this a PA200 specific thing? Not seen this on any other hardware platform, looking into it further it does not look like it's actually using 100% CPU, wondering if it's something to do with the single cpu architecture and splitting the two cores to backplane/ma...

However in the last 2 years both vendors have added and removed categories and changed the descriptions of some of their existing categories. A more recent mappi...
