Resolved! Mass creating local-db users from CLI

Hi Community,We wish to add a batch of users to the local database, I'm just wondering if anyone has had experience with scripting this or doing this in batch.

Any allows were only logged on the local firewall (due to costs of Splunk ingesting logs). It was simple to also send those to Panorama. However, I also want to now send ...

We then pass the data through http 2.0 in plaintext, the data length of http2 messages exceeding 65526 will be partially discarded, resulting in incomplete data and affecting normal operations.Currently, the solution is to turn off the HTTP 2.0 checks, not to do checks on HTTP 2.0, and the business is back to normal.May I ask if anyone has encou...
