Panorama 6.0

Is it possible to manage devices still on 5.x code after upgrading Panorama to 6.x? I've upgraded our test firewall to 6.0 but obviously with Panorama on an older build I can no longer manage it.

Yes, Panorama can manage devices running supported PAN-OS versions of the same or a lower release. It cannot manage firewalls running greater PAN-OS versions than itself (eg. 5.1.x Panorama cannot manage 6.0 boxes).

Yes you can manage them after you upgrade your panorama to 6.0.x

great - that was my experience with previous releases, but it's not clear from the release notes.

Bear in mind that 4.1 and earlier doesn't support the use of device templates, only device groups. But yes we're running Panorama 6.0.1 and managing a PANOS 6.0.1 firewall, a bunch of 5.0 and even 4.1 for a while there until we upgraded them and it worked fine.
