Hello,
Does anyone know if there's a way to have a notification e-mail sent when PBF kicks in? We had a hiccup on our Internet circuit and PBF worked flawlessy... so well though that I wasn't really aware of the circuit issue until the next day when I was troubleshooting something else related to the hiccup. There are probably a few different ways that I can monitor and alert but I was just wondering if having the PA firewall send a notification e-mail is one of them.
Thanks in advance!

You can forward the logs to a syslog server and then parse it for the pbf rule and run a script then sends you an email when it sees the pbf rule.
We cannot achieve this on the PAN itself.

Thanks for the reply. Ok... I may give that a try.

Has there been any updates to allow this type of notification directly from the firewall itself rather than use an external log parser? This has come up a number of time recently for us and it would be a great addition to have a "notify" option/feature on pbf rule triggers.
Thanks,
Steve

While you may not be able to set an email alert on the policy when its hit, how about a system parameter? If the interface goes down for example.
I used to do this for HA events.
Just a thought.
