Panther supports common PAN-OS releases in active deployment, specifically version 10.2+ up to 12.1. Newer PAN-OS versions may introduce extra fields; Panther automatically omits undocumented fields until a future integration release updates the core schema.
When logs are formatted as CSV, PAN-OS devices can export them via Syslog to Panther Log Forwarder or a collector of your choice, which can then forward the logs to Panther using a supported Data Transport.
How to onboard Palo Alto Next Generation Firewall logs to Panther
Step 1: Create a new Palo Alto Next Generation Firewall log source in Panther
In the left-hand navigation bar of your Panther Console, click Log Sources.
Click Create New.
Search for “Palo Alto” then click its tile.
In the Transport Mechanism drop-down, select the Data Transport method you wish to use for this integration.
Click Start Setup.
Follow Panther's instructions for configuring the selected Data Transport method.
Configure your Palo Alto environment to export logs in CSV format via Syslog to a log collector or forwarding service. The logs can then be delivered to Panther through a supported Data Transport.
Correlation logs record correlated events generated by the firewall when a host matches conditions defined in a correlation object, summarizing potential threats to the network, user, or host.
GTP logs record GPRS Tunneling Protocol session and inspection events including subscriber identifiers, tunnel endpoints, GTP message context, and policy outcomes when GTP security is applied.
SCTP logs record Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) session and association events including policy action, verification tags, diameter-related fields, and chunk or association lifecycle details when SCTP inspection is enabled.
Threat logs record security events detected by Threat Prevention, WildFire, URL filtering, Anti-Spyware, Vulnerability Protection, and related profiles.
User-ID logs record IP address-to-user mapping lifecycle events including login, logout, and dynamic tag registration sourced from User-ID agents and integrations.
