How to Determine the Update Schedule for Licensed Features

Issue:

How often do licensed components such as Antivirus, Applications and Threats, and URL Filtering updates occur?

Resolution:

Palo Alto Networks updates are sent based on type.

All update types can be done out of the normal update times if a threat is found and resolved before the next normal update time. Typically it is around 5:00-5:30pm Pacific.

The update schedule on the firewall can be set by going to Device > Dynamic Updates. Each licensed item has a clickable update schedule. From there the frequency and time for each check can be adjusted.
