Understand the data in the Panorama > Cloud Services
> Status > Data Transfer tab in Prisma Access (Panorama Managed).
You can view data transfer statistics for your mobile
users, remote networks, and Clean Pipe deployments using the Data
Transfer tab (
Panorama
Cloud
Services
Status
Data Transfer
).
This tab appears if you have the Prisma Access Edition licenses
that became available after November 2020. If you have a legacy
license that was available before November 2020, this tab does not
display.
Prisma Access tracks this usage in a one-year period, starting
with the date that you activate your license.
Prisma Access tracks your data transfer for mobile
users, remote networks, and Clean Pipe per
unit
, and tracks
the data starting on the date of your license activation. Units
are based on the type of Prisma Access license you have; for mobile
users, a unit is one mobile user and for remote networks, a unit
is 1 Mbps.
Prisma Access allocates 250 GB of data for each unit per year,
starting on the date of your license activation. If you have a license
with multiple types of Prisma Access deployments, Prisma Access
combines the units for all licenses you have to determine the maximum
amount of data you can transfer during a 1 year period. The following
table provides examples of the data transfer limit by license type
and units purchased.
If you have a multitenant deployment,
data transfer across all tenants must add up to the total data transfer
limit based on the allocated units in your license.
