This course provides a practical introduction to managing Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls at scale using Panorama. Participants learn how to centralize firewall management, streamline policy control, and gain visibility across distributed network environments.
Managing multiple firewalls across an organization can quickly become complex and time-consuming. This course focuses on how Panorama simplifies firewall management by providing centralized configuration, policy enforcement, and monitoring.
Over two days, participants gain hands-on experience configuring Panorama, managing device groups and templates, and working with log collection and reporting. The course also covers administrative access, troubleshooting techniques, and best practices for designing and operating a scalable Panorama deployment.
Course ObjectivesThis course should help students gain in-depth knowledge about configuring and managing a Palo Alto Networks Panorama management server. Administrators that complete this course should become familiar with the Panorama management server’s role in managing and securing the overall network
Network professionals will be shown how to use Panorama aggregated reporting to provide them with a holistic view of a network of Palo Alto Networks next generation firewalls.
