Hi,

I have been doing researching for how to migrate from old palo alto firewall model to new. Seem like it will working if using configuration snapshot xml file from old model and restore on the new model and the old & new model is similar. However, I read the kb from https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000ClaOCAS & https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000ClRcCAK, it is stated that the Global Protect Portal need use device state backup from old model and import into the new model

Can anyone give advice on this? Please share with me how you migrate a Global Protect Portal gateway from old model to a new one
