Explanation

AIOps for NGFW includes a Capacity Analyzer feature that aggregates and visualizes resource utilization metrics-such as CPU usage, memory consumption, session table capacity, and throughput-across all managed hardware firewalls. This allows administrators to identify firewalls approaching resource limits and take proactive action before performance degrades. Policy Analyzer evaluates security policy effectiveness and rule usage. Security Posture Insights assesses the overall security configuration posture. Host Information Profile (HIP) is a GlobalProtect mechanism for endpoint compliance checking-it is not an AIOps feature and does not report firewall hardware statistics.
