Panorama Managed collectors - Default and M500 Log collector

Cyber Elite
Cyber Elite

We have Panorama M100 in Panorama Mode.

They are in HA pair.

 

Also we have 2 M500 as dedicated log collector mode.

 

Under Panorama managed collectors  I see default is also checked along with 2 dedicated log collectors.

 

Need to know why default option is checked along with M500?

Hi @MP18

 

Panorama will only be there to show logs from your logs collectors. The logs itself will stay on the collectors. So, no it will not receive logs - but if you already forward the logs from the firewalls to the coĺlectors, then also now panorama does not receive logs.

Hi @MP18

 

This is the default (local) log collector that comes with a Panorama in "panorama-mode". If you don't want this one you need to assign all firewalls to the dedicated log collectors and then change the panorama mode to "management-only".

If i do that then will i lose gui access to panorama ?

Will it break the Fw connections to the panorama?

There will be no change in panorama functionality except that it is then only used for managing the firewalls and showing logs - it will no longer be able to receive logs.

but it will still receive the logs from the M500 right?

Whe we pull up report then it will get logs from M500?
