Does Palo Alto firewall interface supports auto MDIX or needed a cross cable?

Hello,

We are setting up PA-500 ports for HA, Wonder if we need cross cable or it does support auto MDIX?

Hi Amir,

Yes, Palo Alto Firewall gbit interface does support auto-mdix

Gigabit Ethernet is full duplex (use all the pairs) so there is no need to cross cable or mdix 🙂
