Hello,
We are about to upgrade our PA500 to PA220.
We have 2 in HA, both running 7.1.9 and a panorama running pan OS 7.
I was wondering is there a way to copy the configuration from the pa500 to the pa220?
Kind Regards,
Carl

Hi,
You better upgrade your PA500 at least to 8.0.0 release (if possible), then export and import config into the new cluster.
You should not have a problem with your interfaces mapping.

Hi,
Forgot to mention that it is better to keep both devices on the same PAN-OS during config migration 😄

Hi @CarlBergin
Here is the latest eTAC recommended release published to partners a couple of weeks ago.
PAN-OS 8.0:
EOL Reminder:
The above is simply a guideline based on what eTAC has been seen in the field, and because the code has not been out for too long to track potential isues. As of June PAN-OS maintanance release 8.0.3 has been put out.
Make sure that both of you firewalls are running ther same PAN-OS code release. Also, avoid export the .XML configuration from a PAN-OS 8.0.x to a 7.1.x as some features may not be backward compatible and you will get a configuration error output. Upgrading from 7.1.x to 8.0.x should be no problem.
I hope this helps
