What problem does it solve?
Network engineers need visibility into which applications are defined in their Palo Alto Networks Prisma SD-WAN fabric before they can build or audit application-aware policies, but manually querying the controller for application definitions, categories, and risk classifications is slow and error-prone.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Application Discovery: List all application definitions in the fabric via the
get_app_defs tool, including display names, categories, subcategories, and app types (SaaS, on-premise, custom).
- Risk Classification Review: Identify high-risk applications and review risk levels (low, medium, high) to inform security policy decisions.
- Policy Planning Support: Understand available application categories before writing SD-WAN policies, and audit SaaS versus on-premise application types.
- Use Case: Before creating a new QoS policy, ask which business-category applications are defined in the fabric to confirm Office 365 and Zoom are available as policy match criteria.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to show all Prisma SD-WAN application definitions and their risk levels.
