Abstract

Configure EDL permissions.

EDL (External Dynamic List) enables security teams to:

  • Add IP Addresses and Domains to Dynamic Lists - Create lists of malicious or suspicious IPs/domains

  • Integrate with Palo Alto Networks Firewalls - EDL lists are automatically synced and enforceable on PANW firewalls.

  • Block Malicious Traffic - Firewalls can use EDL to block traffic to/from listed entities

  • Centralized Threat Response - Manage blocklists from a single location across your security infrastructure

For more information, see Manage external dynamic lists.

Note

This permission is for analysts to use as a response action during case investigation. The Long Running HTTP Integrations configuration (under Configurations) is for administrators to set up and manage the EDL service infrastructure. For more information, see Long-running HTTP Integrations configuration.
