Past PAN-OS version

HonoAl — Mon, 19 Oct 2020 15:30:34 GMT

Hi Community,

Is there a way to find out all the PAN-OS versions which were uploaded, installed and executed on a Palo Alto firewall in the past?

Guess this information is hidden somewhere on the TSF but have been unable to find where it´s stored.

Thanks.

Ho.

Hello there!

I think the best you will get, is what the previous version (only 1) was was installed, prior to an upgrade.

The system log will show reboot and upgrade information, but only until the logs get overwritten by newer logs.

So, I think NO, the FW does not retain EVERY single upgrade.

Does this answer your question?

Thanks Steve.

How could I review this, hoping the logs have not been overwritten and I am still able to check the previous PAN-OS version running on the firewall?
