Prisma Access 1.7 Post-Launch !

[kiwi]

Palo Alto Networks has been working hard on expanding Prisma Access capabilities. 

About a month ago, Prisma Access Cloud Services plugin 1.7 was released including support for PAN-OS 9.1, new traffic steering functionality, adding a new compute location, and other enhancements! In case you missed it, you can read up on it and check all the details in the following blog: Prisma Access 1.7 Is Here 

In response to several users asking whether or not this has been released: Considering the stability of the user's deployment as a top priority, the stage-wise approach has been implemented to rollout the Prisma Access plugin 1.7. This helps us to roll out to all our customers in a more controlled and stabilized fashion, and giving top priority to the stability of your Prisma Access deployment. You should be receiving a notification via Prisma Access insights and also the app will show up Panorama once available. We apologize for any inconvenience.

The phased rollout for the Cloud Services plugin 1.7 started on September 8, 2020. When the new plugin was available for you, you received a notification on the Customer Support Portal and an alert generated on Prisma Access Insights.

The enforcement date for upgrading the 1.7 plugin has been moved to October 15th, 2020 !!
