Hello all,
I am trying to set up WAN failover on a Palo Alto PA-3020. I used the document at the bottom of this post. When I unplug the interface that is set up in the PBR, it switches over to the secondary ISP like it is supposed to. The problem is the Primary-NAT policy is still active so traffic doesn't pass because the Backup-NAT never takes effect. If I manually disable the Primary-NAT rule then I see traffic able to leave the Palo Alto. I noticed the document is for PANOS 3.1 but it doesn't look like much has changed as far as settings go. Does this setup still work for 6.0+? If so is there something I am missing so the Backup-NAT rule takes over? I didn't see anywhere that tells the NAT policies themselves to failover.

you have to choose destination interface on Nat rules
This is because you hit always first rule.

could you please share your nat rules here

Sure. I basically set it up just like the document stated unless I missed something.

That was it. Yeah I just missed that part in the document. Works like a charm now. Thanks panos!
