Question
What is the reason for this error message?
Screenshot:
Environment
- Panorama
- PAN-DB URL database
Answer
The URL scheduling feature is only for the Brightcloud URL filtering solution. When using the PAN-DB URL filtering database, the scheduling is done automatically.
If you have a PAN-DB license, scheduled updates are not required as firewalls remain in-sync with the servers automatically.
Additional Information
To check which type URL DB the Firewall or Panorama is using:
admin@PA-PA-200(active)> show system setting url-database paloaltonetworks
