Created On 09/25/18 19:10 PM - Last Modified 11/03/23 00:02 AM
Symptom
Shared gateways allow the user to create a common virtual interface, or shared gateway, for the virtual systems that correspond to a single physical interface.
Environment
- Palo Alto Firewalls
- PAN-OS 10.2.x, 11.0.x
- Shared Gateways
Resolution
To view the maximum number of shared gateways use the CLI command:
>show system state | match cfg.general.max-shared-gateway
The charts below provide a matrix of the virtual system capacity and shared gateways allowed for each of the Palo Alto Networks firewall platforms:
