A joint solution with Gigamon enhances the operational efficiency and high availability of Palo Alto Networks Next Generation Firewalls.
The Challenge
These days, next generation firewalls are an integral part of most network security systems and, as their value and functionality increases, continual, efficient operation is essential. Ensuring traffic visibility for these devices regardless of the network type or topology and secure network connectivity, even in the event of device failure, is increasingly essential.
Integrated Solution
Palo Alto Networks next generation firewalls prevent threats, and safely enable applications, across a versatile set of high-performance use cases (e.g., Internet Gateway, DC, and SP environments).
Gigamon provides high-availability design options, the ability to deploy easily in asymmetrically routed networks and easily change the deployment mode of your firewalls without time-consuming physical re-cabling and change orders.
