Migration from Netconnect to GlobalProtect

[albert.buendia]

Hi,

We have a PaloAlto PA-2020 pair (active / passive) with PAN OS 4.0.14 and a lot of laptops with Netconnect installed.

As we have been experiencing problems with Windows 7 64 bits when installing Netconnect we have planned to update

PAN OS to the latest versions.

Wich is the recommended path upgrade?

4.0.14 -> 4.1.0 -> 4.1.13

or

4.0.14->4.1.13

Can we upgrade directly from 4.0.14 to the 4.1.13 ? Remember that there is an automatic reconfiguration from SSLVPN to GlobalProtect Portal.

Then when we finish the 4.1.x upgrade we will plan the 5.X migration.

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

Concerning NetConnect migration: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/message/20192#20192

For upgarding, according the RN, you can move from 4.0.xto 4.A.1 directly (https://downloads.paloaltonetworks.com/software/PAN-OS-4.1.13-RN-revA.pdf?__gda__=1371513358_1bd68ef...).

then after you will  have to move from 4.1.X to 5.0.0 then to 5.0.5.
