PAN-OS dark mode

MarcelPeeters — Wed, 09 Oct 2019 12:34:41 GMT

Hi guys, I work a lot at night and all portals and tools, from Azure Portal, Office 365 Admin Portal, Slack and even Gmail have a Dark Mode, and it really makes the experience a lot better for your eyes. I use dark mode for everything, but spending long hours in PAN-OS with the bright white GUI isn't the best experience at night for your eyes.

So, please make it a feature in PAN-OS 9.1.

Thanks.

@MarcelPeeters,

You'd need to do one of two things:

1) Start working in the CLI and you can customize all of your colors to your hearts content 😉

2) Reach out to your SE and put in a feature request (or add your companies vote to an exiting FR if one already exists for dark mode).

Fourth option: Blue light blocking glasses.

I know it's been a while on this thread; however, in the meantime, there's another option if using Chrome as your browser. Install the extension "Dark Reader", and enable the extension for your Palo Alto GUI URL. Works pretty well, and should suffice until PaloAlto brings a true Dark Mode to their Web UI. 😉

Hi @MarcelPeeters ,

The Feature Request ID is 11765. You can see it on this list -> https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-topics/feature-request-list/td-p/209128. If everyone on this thread contacts their PANW SE and asks them to vote for 11765, the feature request should be given more priority.

Thanks,

Tom

For some of us, a dark mode is essential. I'm visually-impaired and have all sorts of trouble using the GUI. I can use a dark mode extension, but the results aren't perfect (some elements go missing), and it's not exactly the most secure way to go about things. The trouble is, I don't even know if we have an SE, and there appear to be no reasonable mechanisms for bringing this to PA's attention.

Hopefully this is forthcoming soon... I just moved from 9.1 to 10.1 and it got even brighter. Like 'trigger-a-migraine-level' bright...

Plus the yellow scheme would look good in dark mode, if you like the aesthetics.

I enabled dark mode in Edge and set the theme to dark and stormy. Cant see the commit button though.

I'm with you. I love PAs as a product but they need a dark mode.

Hi all,

Some of you just want your voice to be heard. That's okay. For those that want to do something to get this feature implemented, contact your PANW AM/SE/representative and have them vote for Feature Request ID 11765. You can see it on this list -> https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-topics/feature-request-list/td-p/209128.

The real power of this community would be to get tons of votes for this feature request. I'd love to see that!

Thanks,

Tom
