Planned Migration from PA-820 to PA-445 Firewall

H.b495107 — Wed, 07 May 2025 05:17:15 GMT

Hello,

We plan to replace the PA-820 firewall with the PA-445. A configuration snapshot will be taken from the PA-820 and imported into the PA-445. After the import, verify whether all settings have been successfully transferred and if the migration process is proceeding smoothly.
The configuration to be migrated includes:

1. Interface configuration (ports 1 to 6)
2. Global Protect VPN configuration
3. 75 LAN-to-WAN security rules and 42 NAT rules
4. VPN policies for both LAN and WAN access
5. Objects, routing configurations, and security profiles
6. Certificates

Hi @H.b495107 ,

As i understand from above details that you are planning to replace the PA-820 to PA-445 and you shared the configuration which should be moved..

May I check what is the question here. Additionally sharing the link for replacement of the device, same process can be used for your case.
