You can use this document to add a remote log collector to a Palo Alto Firewall remote device (log source).

Pre-deployment considerations

...

Before you begin, review the following requirements:

Log Relay

For remote log collection, you must have a Log Relay server on your account.

• To learn how to add Log Relay to your account, see Obtain Log Relay for Remote Log Collection.

Assumptions

• The firewall is running PAN-OS version 8.1.x

• The device is already set up and configured with the security policies that are needed

• You are allowing traffic through TCP port 10206

Forwarding traffic logs from a Palo Alto Networks firewall to a syslog server has four main steps:

1. Create a syslog server profile

2. Create a log forwarding profile

3. Use the log forwarding profile in your security policy

4. Commit the changes
   

The documentation below outlines steps 1-3.

Create a Syslog Server Profile

...

1. Log into the Palo Alto console.

2. Select Device, then select Server Profiles, followed by Syslog.

3. In the bottom left-side of the screen, click Add to create a new server profile.

4. In the Syslog Server Profile window, in the Name field, enter Log Relay Syslog Server Profile.

   1. Click Servers, then click Add to create a new server.

      1. Name the server Log Relay Input.

      2. In Syslog Server, input the IP address of the log relay.

      3. Set the Transport to TCP.

      4. Set the Port to 10206.

      5. Set the Format to BSD.

      6. Set the Facility to LOG_USER.

   2. On the Custom Log Format tab, change the Custom Format of each log type to the text provided in the table below.

      Info
      Be sure to remove any newlines from the formatting before entering the text into the configuration files.
