delayed traffic logging

Hi All, Some weird stuff going on on our unit: what are the chances that the firewall logged traffic that it received hours ago? In our case, the firewall logged RDP connections that occurred in the early morning. However, the target servers didn't log any login attempts at all.

Direct DNS Resolution on Palo Alto Without DNS Proxy Enabled

Hello, It is possible to perform a DNS resolution directly from the Palo Alto firewall without relying on the current network configuration (such as the default configured DNS). The idea is to bypass internal DNS and use a public DNS directly, such as 8.8.8.8. Note that the DNS proxy is not enabled because it is not being used. Thanks

Current firewall infrastructures are layered hardware like one pair for perimeter, one pair for business network (internal), one pair for DMZ etc. We are exploring the option to collapse everything in one pair of firewall, handl...

Bidirectional PIM Support

Hello everyone, Does PaloAlto support bidirectional PIM? I understand that bidirectional multicast means that a device can be both a sender and a listener, and I would like to know if PaloAlto supports multicast communication in PIM-SM where a single device can be both a sender and a listener.

Resolved! Log messages in ikemgr.log that were present in PAN-OS 11.1 are missing in PAN-OS 11.2

In PAN-OS 11.1 (running on VM-Series in AWS) I could do `debug ike global on dump` to get some [DEBG] and [DUMP] messages in `ikemgr.log` from which I could get the SK_ei and SK_er keys that allow me to decode the IKEv2 messages in a pcap using Wireshark. In PAN-OS 11.2.3-h3, it seems that many log messages that used to be logged are no longer...
