hello

we have a customer with PA220 runing 8.1.8 and they want to upgrade to 10.0.8

I know 10.0 is supported on PA220 but is there any performance issue on PA220 for panOS 10.0.X LIKE slowness etc ?

Any guidelines if is it worth to upgrade to 10.0.X for PA 220?

Hi @FWPalolearner ,

If you check the known issues on PANOS 10, it is mentioned that PA220 models are experiencing slower web interface and cli performance on PANOS 10.

Please check below doc for the details.

@SutareMayur and there is no solution for it ? Can we stick to 9.1.11 as it will still be supported atleast for next year i think

Also , can you advise 10.0.X for PA 820/850 > Any major known issue ?

@FWPalolearner,

You can stick to 9.1 code branch as long as it's supported if you can't stand the delay. It's possible that we'll see some performance responses in future updates in the 10.0 code branch, but I wouldn't really hold my breath on that happening.

The PA-800 series handles PAN-OS 10.0 without any speed issues, and the few platform specific issues have been addressed already. Look through the known issues that @SutareMayur linked and make sure none of them actually effect you and your environment. In my experience the 10.0.8-h4 release has been completely stable.
