The Palo Alto Networks Cortex adapter uses the Palo Alto Networks Cortex Hub to get information about Traps and GlobalProtect agents.

To connect the Palo Alto Cortex adapter, the adapter communicates with an Axonius Cloud endpoint that is authorized to get information from the Cortex hub.

The Adapter requires the following parameters:

  1. API Key - An API key given by Axonius Cloud
  2. HTTPS Proxy (optional) - Enter details if the connection to the API requires a proxy.
  3. Choose Instance - If you are using multi-nodes, choose the Axonius node that is integrated with the adapter. By default, the 'Master' Axonius node (instance) is used. For details, see Connecting Additional Axonius Nodes
