Palo Alto Network Firewall
StandardPalo Alto Network Firewall collects and normalises logs from Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls and Panorama running PAN-OS, in standard syslog (CSV) and CEF formats. It covers Traffic, Threat, URL Filtering, Data Filtering, Config, System, HIP Match, Correlation, User-ID, Tunnel Inspection, Authentication, GTP, SCTP, IP-Tag, GlobalProtect, Decryption, and Audit logs.
Key information
Normalisation support has been removed for PAN-OS versions that have reached end of life: 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1 and 11.0. Logs from firewalls running these versions may no longer be normalised correctly. Upgrade those firewalls to a supported PAN-OS version before you upgrade this integration.
Enhancements
PaloAltoNetworkFirewallCompiledNormalizer now normalises logs from the actively supported PAN-OS versions 10.2, 11.1, 11.2, and 12.1.2. It handles version- and patch-specific field differences, optional internal-use fields, and varying field counts for Threat, Config, System, HIP Match, Correlation, User-ID, Tunnel Inspection, Authentication, GTP, and SCTP logs.
PaloAltoNetworkFirewallCompiledNormalizer now normalises the TCP telemetry fields in Traffic logs, so you can search and analyse device telemetry data.
PaloAltoCEFCompiledNormalizer now parses the details in the message field of CEF System authentication logs into separate fields: authentication_profile , authentication_protocol , virtual_system , server_profile , and destination_address . It also adds the Fail and Authentication labels, so you can correlate failed authentication events.
Bug Fixes
PaloAltoCEFCompiledNormalizer did not apply the timezone in the rt field, so log_ts was populated with an incorrect time.
PaloAltoNetworkFirewallCompiledNormalizer could populate log_ts with an incorrect time when logs with the same timestamp from devices in different time zones were processed at the same time. The data types of several fields were also updated as part of this fix; review any content that depends on field types.
PaloAltoCEFCompiledNormalizer did not normalise GlobalProtect logs. The fix adds field mappings for GlobalProtect and other CEF fields, and renames requestcontext to request_context , action_flags to action_flag , and process_id to process . After upgrading, update any searches, alerts, and dashboards that use the previous field names.
PaloAltoCEFCompiledNormalizer normalised only the first line of multiline CEF logs, such as those sent over TCP syslog with octet-counted framing, so the remaining fields were not normalised.
