Explanation

Panorama's Managed Devices section (accessible under the Panorama tab) provides a centralized view of system resource utilization for all connected firewalls, including CPU usage, session counts, and memory. This allows administrators to identify resource exhaustion conditions across their firewall fleet without logging into each device individually. Panorama does not use SNMP to poll firewalls or receive SNMP traps from them for this purpose - it uses its own management channel. While Panorama collects system and traffic logs, the resource visibility specifically lives in the Managed Devices dashboard.
