A dynamic address group populates its members dynamically using look ups for tags and tag-based filters.
Tags are metadata elements or attribute-value pairs that are registered for each IP address. Tag-based filters use logical and and or operators to match the tags and determine the membership of the dynamic address group. For example, you can create a dynamic address group that includes all IP addresses that have the tags
“web-server” and “linux”. You can also use static tags as part of the filter criteria. References: Policy Object:
Address Groups, Use Dynamic Address Groups in Policy, Statics vs. Dynamic Address Objects Groups

 Data Filtering Profile applied to inbound Security policy rules

 Vulnerability Protection Profile applied to inbound Security policy rules

Vulnerability Protection Security Profiles stop attempts to exploit system flaws or gain unauthorized access to systems. Anti-Spyware Security Profiles identify infected hosts as traffic leaves the network, but Vulnerability Protection Security Profiles protect against threats entering the network.
For example, Vulnerability Protection Security Profiles protect against buffer overflows, illegal code execution, and other attempts to exploit system vulnerabilities.

 Custom URL category in Security policy rule

 PAN-DB URL category in URL Filtering Profile

The precedence is from the top down; First Match Wins: 1) Block list: Manually entered blocked URLs Objects – 2) Allow list: Manually entered allowed URLs Objects – 3) Custom URL Categories – 4) Cached Cached: URLs learned from External Dynamic Lists (EDLs) – 5) Pre- Defined Categories: PAN-DB or Brightcloud categories.
