Geneve is the protocol used for communicating between VM-Series firewalls and a gateway load balancer in Amazon Web Services (AWS). A gateway load balancer is a type of network load balancer that distributes traffic across multiple virtual appliances, such as VM-Series firewalls, in AWS. Geneve is a tunneling protocol that encapsulates the original packet with an additional header that contains metadata about the source and destination endpoints, as well as other information. Geneve allows the gateway load balancer to preserve the original packet attributes and forward it to the appropriate VM-Series firewall for inspection and processing. VRLAN, GRE, and VMLAN are not protocols used for communicating between VM-Series firewalls and a gateway load balancer in AWS, but they are related concepts that can be used for other purposes.

DNS Security is the feature that provides real-time analysis using machine learning (ML) to defend against new and unknown threats. DNS Security leverages a cloud-based service that applies predictive analytics, advanced ML, and automation to block malicious domains and stop attacks in progress. Advanced URL Filtering (AURLF), Cortex Data Lake, and Panorama VM-Series plugin are not features that provide real-time analysis using ML, but they are related solutions that can enhance security and visibility.

The two actions that can be performed for VM-Series firewall licensing by an orchestration system are:

Creating a license

Registering an authorization code

An orchestration system is a software tool that automates and coordinates complex tasks across multiple devices or platforms. An orchestration system can perform various actions for VM-Series firewall licensing by using the Palo Alto Networks Licensing API. The Licensing API is a RESTful API that allows programmatic control of license management for VM-Series firewalls. Creating a license is an action that can be performed for VM-Series firewall licensing by an orchestration system using the Licensing API. Creating a license involves generating a license key for a VM-Series firewall based on its CPU ID and the license type. Registering an authorization code is an action that can be performed for VM-Series firewall licensing by an orchestration system using the Licensing API. Registering an authorization code involves activating a license entitlement for a VM-Series firewall based on its authorization code and CPU ID. Renewing a license and downloading a content update are not actions that can be performed for VM-Series firewall licensing by an orchestration system using the Licensing API, but they are related tasks that can be done manually or through other methods.

To deploy a VM-Series firewall on NSX, you need to enable communication between Panorama and the NSX Manager. This allows Panorama to receive information about the virtual machines and services in the NSX environment. You also need to register the VM-Series firewall as a service on the NSX Manager.This allows NSX to redirect traffic to the VM-Series firewall for inspection3.

Access to the Cloud NGFW for AWS console must be enabled when using Terraform templates with a Cloud next-generation firewall (NGFW) for Amazon Web Services (AWS). Terraform is an open-source tool that allows users to define and provision infrastructure as code using declarative configuration files. Terraform templates are files that specify the resources and configuration for deploying and managing infrastructure components, such as firewalls, load balancers, networks, or servers. Cloud NGFW for AWS is a cloud-native solution that provides comprehensive security and visibility across AWS environments, including VPCs, regions, accounts, and workloads. Cloud NGFW for AWS is deployed and managed by Palo Alto Networks as a service, eliminating the need for customers to provision, configure, or maintain any infrastructure or software. Access to the Cloud NGFW for AWS console must be enabled when using Terraform templates with a Cloud NGFW for AWS, as the console is the web-based interface that allows customers to view and manage their Cloud NGFW for AWS instances, policies, logs, alerts, and reports. The console also provides the necessary information and credentials for integrating with Terraform, such as the API endpoint, access key ID, secret access key, and customer ID. AWS CloudWatch logging, access to the Palo Alto Networks Customer Support Portal, and AWS Firewall Manager console access do not need to be enabled when using Terraform templates with a Cloud NGFW for AWS, as those are not required or relevant components for Terraform integration.
