Hi, Everyone
I am sorry I am posting a few questions today I am still learning the PAN-OS platform and this is kind of a basic one; is it possible to tell the MAC address of a local layer 3 VLAN interface? I can ping it, and verify that the IP address is configured locally on the interface, however the MAC does not show up in the local VLAN interface configuration, nor does it show up in the local ARP table.
admin@PA-5050> show interface vlan.3357

Of course the box own ip wont show up in the arp cache (same with windows boxes or anything else).
show interface <interfacename>
should bring you info about PAN's own mac-addresses.
Example from the PAN-OS_4.1_Reference_Guide.pdf:
username@hostname> show interface ethernet1/3
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: ethernet1/3, ID: 18
Link status:
Runtime link speed/duplex/state: unknown/unknown/down
Configured link speed/duplex/state: auto/auto/auto
Link is forced down due to link-state-pass-through
MAC address:
Port MAC address 00:1b:17:00:6f:12
Operation mode: virtual-wire
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: ethernet1/3, ID: 18
Operation mode: virtual-wire
Virtual wire: vw34, peer interface: ethernet1/4
Interface management profile: N/A
Service configured:
Zone: vw34, virtual system: vsys1
