Advanced URL License

gdu_palo — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 11:47:05 GMT

I had a PAN-DB license for URL Filtering. After renewing the licenses, there is Advanced URL Filtering instead. But it is not functioning. When I try to add a profile, there is a note at the bottom that says License required for URL Filtering to function. I deleted old keys from the CLI. When I fetch the license, it appears again. Could you please help me solve this issue?

Hello @gdu_palo

thanks for post! What PAN-OS version are you running? There is known issue in older PAN-OS versions: Error Message "License Required for URL Filtering to Function".

Kind Regards

Pavel
