Hello,

as far as I know "old" blueprint concerned 10.1 - I extended PCNSE in April and there weren't any questions about features which came with 10.2 ... so "new" blueprint will check your knowledge about Nebula, I believe.

I heard that PA go with one version below than the latest PAN-OS. If that is the case, the current exam should be with 10.0. Since Nebula is new, the upcoming exam may change to 10.1. I am still waiting for an official answer.

Regards,

Manu

The PCNSE Study Guide from August 2021 it said the following

"This exam will certify that the successful candidate has the knowledge and skills necessary to implement the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall PAN-OS 10.1 platform in any environment."

Personally I believe that it's too soon to update the study guide to PAN-OS 10.2.
