Panorama compatibility with previous versions

L1 Bithead

Do you know if Panorama could manage firewalls with versions far from the actual? For example, if I have a Panorama running version 10.0.x, can I manage firewalls running 8.0.x, 8.1.x, 9.0.x? or how many previous version could manage?

@emendezo,

Your 8.0 firewalls really need to be updated to a supported version, however I know that one of the clients I support does have a few 8.0 boxes still kicking around and their Panorama instance running 10.0 manages them still without any issues. That being said, as I repeatedly tell them, the last thing on your network that should be running in an unsupported state is your security appliances.

Hi @emendezo 

Officially supported are all PAN-OS versions which did not reach their end-of-life date. So managing firewalls back to PAN-OS 8.1 should work.
