When updating Palo firewalls, why the need to update through each base version as well as a preferred maintenance version?
e.g. if going from version 8.1.x, to 10.1.x, why 9.0 > 9.0.x > 9.1 > 9.1 > 10.0 etc.
IF each baseline version release e.g. 9.0, 9.1, 10.0 is a full release of the software then what is to stop upgrading to 9.0 > 10.0 > 10.1 skipping the interim preferred maintenance releases?
The only obvious 2x explanations that I can come up with are :
Does anyone have any internal level of technical understanding which can confirm if I can get away with upgrading from 8.1.x to 10.1.0 without interim versions, on an otherwise factory reset firewall with no customised configuration in place?
Always curious!
