Deny internet traffic for a specific subnet

L1 Bithead

Hello, is it possible with palo alto firewall to deny internet traffic for a specific subnet?

let's say I have this subnet: 10.100.30.0/24

I want 10.100.30.0/24 to not reach the internet.

What should I do?

Hello,

Just make sure to put in a deny policy prior to your allow internet policy.

The PAN just like every other FW reads top down left to right for policies, once it matches the action in the policy is taken, e.g. allow or deny.

 

i.e. 

 

'deny internet for subnet' source IP 10.100.30.0/24 destination zone untrust action deny

'allow internet' source zone trust destination zone untrust action allow

 

That is highly simplified and follow best practices on URL and threat filtering including ssl decryption.

 

Hope that helps.
