Create a New PAN-OS or Panorama User

Step 1:

  • Log into the PAN-OS or Panorama web UI using your assigned credentials.

  • Select the Device tab and then on the left toolbar, select Administrators.

  • In the bottom left corner of the page, select Add.

Step 2:

  • The Administrator dialog box appears. In the Name field, enter a username. In the Password field, enter a secure password for the account. If your organization has a standardized and secure credential convention for accounts used for services and other purposes, use that convention.

  • For Firewalls:

    • In the drop-down below Administrator Type, select the role of Device administrator (read-only).

  • For Panorama:

    • In the drop-down below Administrator Type, select the role of Superuser (read-only).

Note that these Administrator Types are needed due to API collections.

  • Select OK.
