   1. Enter the Name and Value.
   2. Click Review+create.

8. After successfully creating the local rulestack, register it in the Azure Portal by creating a customer support case.
9. To register the local rulestack in the Azure portal, navigate to Support + troubleshooting and select Create Case at Customer Support Portal.

   Consider the following:

   • You may have used a different email address to subscribe to Cloud NGFW and a different one to access the Palo Alto Networks Customer Support Portal account.
   • Alternatively, you can create a dedicated Palo Alto Networks support account for Cloud NGFW.
   • In both of these cases you skip the registration option during the initial login process to the Cloud NGFW tenant but register your tenant in the Customer Support Portal.
10. When you select the option to Create Case at Customer Support Portal in the Azure portal you're directed to the Customer Support Portal where you will enter your login credentials. You can use your existing Customer Support Portal login credentials, or create a new Customer Support Portal login account. Enter your email address and resolve the Captcha, then click Next.
11. After entering your email address, the Customer Support Portal determines if you have an existing account, or if you need a new one. If you have Palo Alto Networks products associated with the email address you have entered, information for the Cloud Marketplace (Tenant ID and Serial Number) appear. Click Next to log in to the Customer Support Portal and continue with the registration process.
12. Follow the prompts to complete the rest of the registration process.

    For existing accounts, registration information is prepopulated. For new Customer Support Portal accounts you will be prompted to set up the account (for example, which Palo Alto products you use).
13. Once registration is complete a success message appears. You can use the Customer Support Portal to verify this by selecting Products > Assets. In the Assets page, select the Cloud NGFW tab:
14. You can use the Azure portal to verify that the Cloud NGFW tenant is now registered. In the Azure portal navigate to Support + troubleshooting:

    The Tenant ID and Product serial number now reflect the link between the Palo Alto Networks Customer Support Portal and Azure portal.
