Where is PAN-OS 7.0.0?

scottsander — Tue, 30 Aug 2016 20:43:15 GMT

I have been running PAN firewalls for years and have been the person responsible for upgrading PAN-OS on them since PAN-OS 3.1.9. Each time, going from one release to a version in a different major release involved downloading the base version of the major release as well as the version I want to go to.

For example, upgrading from 3.1.9 to 4.0.8 involved downloading both 4.0.0 and 4.0.8 and installing just 4.0.8. Likewise going from 4.0.8 to 4.1.6 (4.1.0 and 4.1.6) and from 4.1.8 to 5.0.10 (5.0.0 and 5.0.10).

I'm now trying to go from 6.1.12 to 7.0.8, but I do not see 7.0.0 in the Software pane in PAN-OS. Where is it? I pressed Check Now, but it didn't show up.

Hello,

It was found to have deficiencies so they pulled it. The lowest 7.0.x train is 7.0.1.

Cheers!

Does this mean that I download 7.0.1 and 7.0.8 then and install 7.0.8?

I guess that would make sense. I'm seeing 7.0.1 as 602 MB and 7.0.2 as 245 MB.
