Explanation

PAN-OS User-ID redistribution allows firewalls to share IP-to-user mappings directly with other firewalls. In a multi-data-center environment, each firewall collects local user mappings and then redistributes them to peer firewalls at other sites using the firewall-to-firewall redistribution mechanism. This is configured by designating firewalls as redistribution points. Panorama can aggregate logs but is not the redistribution path for User-ID mappings between firewalls.
