6.0.x - Stable?

networkadmin — Wed, 28 Jan 2015 20:17:53 GMT

We're on 5.0.15. Can't say it does anything wrong but there's always a point at which you feel compelled to upgrade.

My rule of thumb has always been wait until the .07 release of any new PAN-OS - seems to be about when they're considered stable.

So would anyone expect any significant issues moving from 5.0.15 to 6.0.8?

My main interest is DNS Sinkholing and the new filetypes that WildFire supports.

Are commit times still a dog on a PA-500?

Hello Networkadmin,

As per my opinion, i would suggest you PAN OS version 6.0.7 or 6.0.8. These are pretty stable and no major issue has been reported so far.

Thanks

Hi Networkadmin,

I would suggest you PAN OS version 6.0.8 and Mr. hulk is right.
