Private IP Address Visibility and Enforcement for Agent Based Proxy Traffic
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
Users who connect to Prisma Access Explicit Proxy through GlobalProtect
agent from branches, can leverage Private IP addresses of endpoints for
logging or to apply IP address based enforcement.
IP Address Optimization for Explicit Proxy Users- Proxy Deployments
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
IP address optimization is a set of architectural enhancements that reduce the
overall number of IP addresses in your deployment, simplifying your allow listing
workflows while improving resiliency and enabling faster onboarding of Prisma Access
tenants and enabling faster onboarding of Prisma Access tenants.
IP Address Stickiness
With IP address stickiness, you can secure the SaaS apps and websites that require
user sessions to maintain the same egress IP address of Prisma Access throughout the
user session.
Simplify SaaS Applications Onboarding
Adding a Prisma Access location or experiencing a scaling event at an existing Prisma Access
location could lead to new IP addresses being allocated to your Explicit Proxy
deployments. It's a best practice to retrieve the new egress and gateway IP
addresses and add them to an allow list of the SaaS applications. IP
address optimization reduces the number of IP addresses that you have to manage in
large deployments.
Explicit Proxy China Support

Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
Prisma Access supports Explicit Proxy deployments in China.
Remote Networks—High Performance
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
Prisma Access offers a comprehensive solution for high-bandwidth IPSec
termination, supporting large sites, automated load balancing, simplified
onboarding, regional redundancy, single egress IP management, and compatibility with
various SD-WAN solutions including Prisma SD-WAN. These features collectively
enhance the scalability, performance, and reliability of remote site connectivity.
As your business scales and your office locations become geographically distributed,
you can quickly onboard a branch site with a high bandwidth using a Prisma Access
performant remote network, also known as a Remote
Network—High Performance. These networks offer the following benefits:
- Supports up to 3 Gbps aggregate bandwidth per service IP address or service endpoint address, providing you with a reduced number of IP addresses or FQDNs to use for IPSec tunnel termination.
- Includes regional redundancy to improve availability and fault tolerance.
- Uses NAT to reduce public egress IP addresses.
- Simplifies onboarding with in-product recommendations for choosing locations based on geographic availability.
- Includes support for Link Quality Metrics (LQM), where Prisma SD-WAN determines link quality by actively probing the Secure Fabric VPN paths over public and private transports and the private WAN underlay paths. The probes provide a constant measurement of network performance metrics, such as jitter, latency, and packet loss. These metrics, along with application-specific performance metrics and Layer 1 through Layer 7 reachability, inform traffic forwarding decisions for new and existing application flows.
Route Summarization for Dynamic Privilege Access
Supported in:
Prisma Access (Managed by Strata Cloud Manager) 5.2 Innovation
|
On Dynamic Privilege Access enabled Prisma
Access tenants, you can summarize routes when advertising the Mobile User (MU)
routes to your on-premises network. Route summarization is beneficial for
enterprises that have on-premises equipment that has limited capacity such as basic
cloud routers. By reducing the demand on these devices, route summarization ensures
that the devices won't exceed their route capacity when communicating with the data
center.
To enable route summarization, configure
global summary pools that consist of lists of large IP pools that can be used across
multiple projects. Then, enable route summarization in the Prisma Access service
connection. When a user uses the Prisma Access Agent to connect to a project that
has an IP address within the range of the configured global summary pools, the
service connection will advertise the global summary pool instead of the smaller
project-level route. This helps reduce the number of routes that are sent to the
network.
SC-NAT Support for Dynamic Privilege Access with CIAM
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Innovation
|
Use SC-NAT support for Dynamic Privilege Access (DPA) if you use
DPA and have created service connections to access private apps in your data center
or headquarters location. Multiple projects in your DPA environment can experience
IP address exhaustion if the IP addresses of the Infrastructure Subnet overlap. To
fix this issue, Prisma Access can implement source NAT (SNAT) for IP addresses,
which:
- Lets Prisma Access map a single IP address for a mobile user accessing private apps using a service connection
- Provides you with SNAT for easy routing
- Eliminates IP Pool overlap
- Eliminates IP Pool IPv4 exhaustion between Prisma Access and your data center or headquarters location
Simplified Prisma Access Private App Connectivity
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
One way to access a private app is by using a service connection, also known as a
Service Connection-Corporate Access Node (SC-CAN). It can be difficult to
connect to private apps using service connections because:
- Indeterministic throughput of the private app due to SC-CAN bottlenecks
- Latency due to incorrect transit hops
- Operational complexity in deploying SC-CANs
To solve this issue, Prisma Access has enhanced its routing infrastructure,
orchestrating additional routes to your onboarded SC-CANs in the Prisma Access
internal network when required, eliminating SC-CAN bottlenecks and preventing
incorrect transit hops and inefficient routing.
This design offers the following benefits:
- Routing setup that is easier to deploy
- Easy day zero setup
- Deterministic 1 Gbps bandwidth from a given SC-CAN to the data center or headquarters location where the private app is located
Simplify Prisma Access SaaS Connectivity with IP Optimization for Mobile Users and Explicit Proxy Deployments
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
Prisma Access expands on the IP Optimization functionality by offering it for
Explicit Proxy as well as Mobile Users—GlobalProtect.
For Mobile Users—GlobalProtect deployments, when a large number of users access a
GlobalProtect gateway from a location, Prisma Access autoscales the location and
adds another GlobalProtect gateway. IP Optimization uses a NAT layer so that the
autoscaled gateway uses the same IP address as the previously allocated IP address,
thus eliminating the need to add extra IP addresses to your organization's allow
lists.
Prisma Access expands the NAT layer to Explicit Proxy Security Processing Nodes
(SPNs) as well as Mobile User SPNs, reducing the need to allow list IP addresses for
Explicit Proxy deployments. This Explicit Proxy NAT layer is beneficial if you're
setting up a Mobile Users and Explicit Proxy deployment in Proxy Mode or Tunnel and Proxy Mode.
TLS 1.3 and PubSub Support for Traffic Replication
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
PubSub support is added in Prisma Access 5.2.1
Preferred and Innovation.
|
If you're a large organization using Traffic Replication, you can have the
following challenges in deploying and using it:
- Tools that consume the packet capture (PCAP) files require frequent queries of the buckets to cope with a large number of PCAP files. The tools might create overhead on the buckets and their use might be limited by the cloud providers.
- When using the PCAP files for forensic analysis, accessing SSL decrypted traffic provides better efficacy, and a significant amount of the traffic is TLS 1.3 encrypted.
To solve these issues, Prisma Access offers these enhancements that allow third-party
tools to be more efficient and easier to scale:
- Pub/Sub Notifications—Prisma Access proactively sends a Pub/Sub notification when a new PCAP file is uploaded to the storage bucket. Using Pub/Sub notifications for new PCAP files eliminates the need to develop tools that notify you when there are new files in the buckets.
- TLS 1.3 Decryption Support—Prisma Access uses TLS 1.3 when decrypting PCAP files, thus providing deeper visibility into the traffic. This support applies to remote network deployments where you have enabled the use of SSL/TLS decryption policy rules on PCAP files.
View and Monitor Colo-Connect
Supported in:
Prisma Access 5.2 Preferred and Innovation
|
Prisma Access
Colo-Connect builds on the Colo-based
performance hub concept, with high-bandwidth private connections along with Layer
2/3 connectivity to Prisma Access from existing performance hubs. Colo-Connect
