To enable access to Cortex XDR components, you must allow access to various Palo Alto Networks resources. If you use the specific Palo Alto Networks App-IDs indicated in the table, you do not need to explicitly allow access to the resource. A dash (—) indicates there is no App-ID coverage for a resource. Access must be allowed from the agent to the console, but does not need to be bidirectional.
Note
Some of the IP addresses required for access are registered in the United States. As a result, some GeoIP databases do not correctly pinpoint the location in which IP addresses are used. All customer data is stored in your deployment region, regardless of the IP address registration, and restricts data transmission through any infrastructure to that region. For considerations, see Plan Your Cortex Deployment.
