Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Firewall with Megaport Virtual Edge
Palo Alto Networks offers a range of solutions for MVE, providing both advanced network flexibility and scalability, and robust security options. Depending on your needs, you can deploy a Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Firewall for extra security to your network at the edge or Palo Alto Networks Prisma SD-WAN for streamlined network management and SD-WAN functionalities.
VM-Series is the next-generation firewall (NGFW) solution from Palo Alto Networks that adds extra security to your network at the edge. Using Megaport Virtual Edge (MVE), you can quickly and securely deploy a NGFW in many global locations.
In the Megaport Portal you create and manage the MVE and Virtual Cross Connects (VXCs) to cloud on-ramps and other services in the Megaport software-defined network. MVE acts as the underlay providing the compute, networking, and connectivity on demand, so that when it is paired with the overlay of the VM-Series NGFW it quickly and securely deploys a complete virtual firewall service. You manage the firewall via the appliance’s local GUI or Palo Alto network orchestrator, Panorama.
The following diagram shows an example network implementation of Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Firewall features over the Megaport network.
