Migrate existing rules/objects from one device group to another

L3 Networker

Does anyone have a good set of steps to convert / migrate a policy from one device group to another, including all objects/groups/etc?

I've done this in Panorama without using Expedition, by loading partial configs from one DG to another by loading a partial configuration from the source device group in the running-config as per https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/Configuration-Articles/How-to-move-or-copy-objects-in-configura...

 

You need to start with the dependencies i.e. tags, addresses, address groups, apps, app groups, profiles, profile groups etc. then you can copy the policy. You can copy all pre- or post- rules at once by using the pre-rules or post-rules Xpath.

 

 

I found an old tech note for PAN-OS 6 quite helpful for this process https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/Tech-Note-Articles/Panorama-Device-Migration/ta-p/62527 even though the device migration process is largely automated today.
