1. Specify the log types to send to Strata Logging Service.

   The way you enable sending depends on the log type. For logs that are generated based on a policy match, use a log forwarding profile within a device group. For other log types, use the Log Settings configuration within a template.

   1. To configure sending of System, Configuration, User-ID, and HIP Match logs:

      1. Select DeviceLog Settings.
      2. Select the Template that contains the firewalls from which you want to send logs to Strata Logging Service.
      3. For each log type that you want to send to Strata Logging Service, Add a match list filter. Give it a Name, optionally define a Filter, select Panorama/Cloud Logging, and click OK.

   2. To configure sending of all other log types that are generated when a policy match occurs, such as Traffic or Threat logs, create and attach a Log Forwarding profile to each policy rule for which you want to send logs.

      1. Select the Device Group and then select ObjectsLog Forwarding to Add a profile. In the log forwarding profile match list, add each log type that you want to send.
         (Optional) If you enabled the Enhanced Application Logs feature, then fully Enable enhanced application logs in cloud loggingStrata Logging Service on the firewall to send these log types. When you select this option, match lists that specify the log types required for enhanced application logging are automatically added to the profile.
      2. Add the log forwarding profile match list for each log type - click Add > Log Forwarding profile Match List and select the log type you want to forward.
         Select Panorama/Cloud Logging as the Forward Method to enable the firewalls in the device group to send logs so you can monitor the logs and generate reports from Panorama.

      3. Create basic Security policy rules in the device group.
         Until the firewall has interfaces and zones and a basic Security policy, it will not let any traffic through and, by default, will log only traffic that matches a Security policy rule.
      4. For each rule you create, select Actions and select the Log Forwarding profile that allows the firewall to send logs to Strata Logging Service.

2. (PA-7000 Series firewalls only) Configure a log card interface to perform log forwarding.

   As of PAN-OS 10.1, you can no longer forward system logs using the Management interface or using service routes through the Data Plane interfaces. The only way to forward system logs from a PA-7000 Series firewall running PAN-OS 10.1 or later is by configuring a Log Forwarding Card (LFC).

   1. Select NetworkInterfacesEthernet and click Add Interface.
   2. Select the Slot and Interface Name.
   3. Set the Interface Type to Log Card.
   4. Enter the IP Address, Default Gateway, and (for IPv4 only) Netmask.
   5. Select Advanced and specify the Link Speed, Link Duplex, and Link State.

      These fields default to auto, which specifies that the firewall automatically determines the values based on the connection. However, the minimum recommended Link Speed for any connection is 1000 (Mbps).
   6. Click OK to save your changes.
3. Commit your changes to Panorama and push them to the template and device group you created.
4. Verify that the firewall logs are sent to Strata Logging Service.

   • On Panorama 8.1.7 and later releases, select MonitorLogs and review the From Strata Logging Service column to identify whether the logs that you view on Panorama are stored on Strata Logging Service—yes indicates that the logs are saved to Strata Logging Service.

     Use the CLI command request logging-service-forwarding status for detailed information on the connectivity status to Strata Logging Service and to verify whether you enabled Duplicate Log Forwarding or Enhanced Application Logs.
   • On a firewall, enter the CLI command show logging-status:

     Look for the ‘Log collection log forwarding agent’ is active and connected to <IP_address> line. You can also see that CMS 0 and CMS (the Log Collectors) are not receiving logs.
     On firewalls running PAN-OS 8.1.7 and later releases, you can Show Status DeviceSetupManagement and click Strata Logging Service) to verify that the firewall is connected and sending logs to Strata Logging Service.
5. Use the ACC on Panorama to monitor network activity.

   You can also select MonitorManage Custom Reports and Run Now to generate reports on summary logs.

   Or

   Log in to hub and launch Strata Logging Service and click Explore to view the logs.
6. (PAN-OS 10.0.2 or later and Cloud Services Plugin 1.8 or later) Generate scheduled reports on Strata Logging Service data.
7. Archive Strata Logging Service logs by forwarding logs from Strata Logging Service to a Syslog server or email server for long-term storage, SOC, or internal audit.
