Manage Historical Device Telemetry

For PAN-OS 10.0, support for prior telemetry data collection is reduced.
Prior to 10.0, telemetry data was mostly of interest for threat intelligence purposes. As of 10.0, threat intelligence metrics are still a large portion the data collected by the device, but a great deal more data involving the health, performance, and configuration of the device is collected as well.
If you have an existing next-generation firewall, and you have any of the historical telemetry data categories enabled, then when you upgrade to PAN-OS 11.1 your firewall will continue to collect and share this information. If you want to turn this telemetry data sharing off, use the following CLI commands:
set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service application-reports no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service threat-prevention-reports no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service threat-prevention-information no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service threat-prevention-pcap no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service passive-dns-monitoring no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service url-reports no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service health-performance-reports no set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service file-identification-reports no
If you have a 11.1 firewall and this telemetry sharing is turned off, but you want to share this data with Palo Alto Networks, then you can turn it on using:
set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service application-reports yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service threat-prevention-reports yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service threat-prevention-information yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service threat-prevention-pcap yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service passive-dns-monitoring yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service url-reports yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service health-performance-reports yes set deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service file-identification-reports yes
You can see whether your device is collecting and sharing this historical telemetry data using the following CLI command:
show deviceconfig system update-schedule statistics-service
