PA850 last supported PANOS 11.1.x

[nsingh]

Hey Folks,

The last supported version for the PA-850 is PAN-OS 11.1.0. The PA-850 has End-of-Support (EoS) until 2029. However, I want to confirm whether security patches, threat updates, and other dynamic updates will continue to be provided until 2029. We need to ensure that the firewall remains secure against vulnerabilities throughout its remaining lifecycle. or should we go ahead looking for replacement. Thanks!

Hi @nsingh ,

Last supported PAN-OS is 11.1.x so updates in the 11.1 train should still be supported:

PAN-OS 11.1.x will be supported on the PA-850 until the end-of-life date (August 31, 2029). 
Looking for an alternative you can consider the PA-1400 Series.
