Having a weird issue with a remote client connection to over VPN to multiple internal MSSQL servers. A particular SQL EXEC query packet is getting dropped in the middle of an SQL session.

Firewall tries to close a BGP/TCP connection with switch

Hi, The following problem involves a firewall (10.249.0.13) wanting to close a BGP connection with its neighboring switch (10.249.0.14).

Resolved! Best Practice for Root CA Self Signed Cert on NGFW

I have a question regarding best practices for creating Root CA self-signed cert(s) on a NGFW. Should one single self-signed CA root cert be used as the root cert for ALL certificate chains for firewall services such as SSL Decryption, GlobalProtect portal, Gateway Certificates, etc, etc? So I guess there are two specific questions: 1) Is there...

Looking to switch to PAN for NGFW, need insight into IPS, reporting and analytics, network visibility, etc

Hey all, I work IT security for a SMB in the financial sector and I'm looking into PAN, FortiGate and Check Point for a better NGFW solution than what we currently have, which is Sonicwall.

Resolved! FlexVM Licensing with Software NGFW Credits

Hi all, As you probably know, paloalto recently changed the licensing of VM firewalls. With greater flexibility (and higher licensing costs), there is now also the possibility to increase only the RAM for such a VM firewall which results in higher capacity for rules, zones, concurrent sessions. Some of the specs which change with a different mem...

Can't get support for NGFW credits

We purchased NGFW credits but haven't received any activation e-mail. We can't open a support case through the portal as we don't have an asset to open the case against in our account. There's supposedly an open support case button on LIVEcommunity but I can't find it. Phone support doesn't recognize the serial number received from orders@paloal...
