Panorama shared objects

Alex_Samad — Fri, 16 Jun 2017 00:31:33 GMT

I am about to import my config from a PA into panorama.

Now with shared objects, how do you manage them, can you delete them, I haven't found a way to do it via the web ui

How do change it from shared to non shared or the reverse ?

AFAIK there is no way to convert them perse.

You can however clone objects and put the clone into either the Shared or specific Device Group. You would then need to then go and reassociate the new objects all throughout your policy which would be a pretty laborious process.

Moving an Object (at least Address, Service, Region Objects) from a device Group to "Shared" is possible trough the GUI the follow way:

- Navigate to Objects -> Address

- Choose Device Group which contains Object

- Select the Address (could also be more than one at the time)

- Click on "move" at the bottom (next to add/del)

- Popup will be there to choose the new Device Group or "shared"

I never tested to move from "shared" to a device group, but i think it should work.

Important: You will get an error if you move e.g. a device group to shared if not all objects within this device group are already shared.

Works with Panorama 7.1
