Question
Can a M-Series (M-500, M-600) appliance in Log Collector/Mixed mode use 10G port to forward logs such as System, Traffic , Threat logs, to an external log server?
Environment
Panorama in Mixed/Dedicated Log Collector
M-500
M-600
Answer
Currently for PAN-OS 9.0 and earlier, we do not support using 10G interfaces on Panorama running on mixed/dedicated Log Collector mode for forwarding logs to external servers. Only the management port is used for sending logs to an external server.
Additional Information
In an environment with heavy log traffic, consider using the 10Gbps interfaces (Ethernet4 and Ethernet5) on the M-500 and M-600 appliances for log collection and collector group communication.
