Create an Application List

Create a list of applications you can use to build rules in a firewall policy.

Create application lists to allow or deny traffic to a group of applications. You can have a maximum of 2,500 application lists in a firewall policy. Each application list can contain a maximum of 200 applications.

To import multiple application lists using a .json file, see Bulk Import Firewall Policy Components.

Important

Some names are reserved by Palo Alto Networks®. If you create a policy component with a reserved name, the process fails with an error. See Reserved Names.
