Hi Everyone!   Just a quick question about classes in PanOS. I can see that there are eight classes named Class1 - Class8. As we use QoS profile rules to assign bandwidth and priority to a class, is the class I choose somewhat arbitrary?   For example, I want to assign voice and video traffic to a class, and make it a high-priority class. Can I choose any class, or do I need to choose 'Class1'?   Thanks ... View more

Hi,   I'm interested in using path monitoring for alerting. I'm aware that it can be used with PBF, static routes, HA, etc, but that's not quite what I'm after. I have BGP to manage that side of things.   I would like to monitor the path to the internet. Perhaps pinging the provider's gateway IP and looking for responses. If the link goes down or if the ping responses stop, I would then like to generate an alert. I guess this is a bit like an IP SLA on a Cisco router.   Can I use path monitoring for this? If not, is there another way to collect this information?     Thanks ... View more

Hi,   I'm familiar with BGP in general, but not so much on the Palo Alto platform.   I'm peering with a service provider, but I don't see a default route being advertised toward us. The default route in the routing table is learned from an OSPF neighbour (which is the expected behaviour of course).   I'm trying to find out how to see the routes that were learned, before the best routes were selected for the routing table. I just want to see if the default route is in there. How can I do this?   Also, is there any special configuration required to accept the default route? Do I need to create an import policy for this?     Thanks ... View more

While learning more about Palo Alto firewalls, I put together a guide on how to update a pair of firewalls in HA. Hope it's useful, and I hope you like it!   https://youtu.be/tPkMxJXIW7s ... View more
