Copy custom url category from one Palo to another

Hello,

I have two 3200 series firewalls (different models though). How can I copy a custom URL category from one firewall to the other one?

Thanks.

Thank you for the post @roma

probably the fastest and easiest way is to copy it from CLI.

Please ssh to the Firewall you want to copy URLs from, then issue below commands:

set cli config-output-format set
set cli pager off
configure
show profiles custom-url-category

then you will see all configured custom URL profiles, copy all of them and ssh to Firewall you want to copy them to and issue:

set cli scripting-mode on

then paste all configuration and commit. After this step unless you get an error, all configuration should be imported.

Kind Regards

Pavel
