Hi @Schneur_Feldman ,

That is a great question. PANW has many documents with regards to best practices for dynamic updates, one of which is mentioned by @PavelK. I have seen the update intervals change over the years, getting smaller as PANW increases their frequency of providing updates.

For my NGFWs, I always load the Day 1 Configuration 1st. It includes the current best practice update schedule for each update. https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000PM2lCAG It also includes many other best practices. Afterwards, in order to keep up with best practice changes, I run a BPA on Panorama or a selected NGFW. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/best-practices/9-1/best-practices-getting-started/get-started-with-best-practices/access-and-run-the-bpa

This is the best way I have found to stay updated to best practice recommendations.

Thanks,

Tom
