Hi all,
As you probably know, paloalto recently changed the licensing of VM firewalls. With greater flexibility (and higher licensing costs), there is now also the possibility to increase only the RAM for such a VM firewall which results in higher capacity for rules, zones, concurrent sessions. Some of the specs which change with a different memory profile are written here: https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/vm-series/10-0/vm-series-deployment/license-the-vm-series-firewall/software-ngfw.html
My question@ now are: are these the only specs that change with a different memory profile? What about concurrent dercypted sessions, virtual routers, ...? Does the vm refuse to boot if there is for example 20 GB of RAM attached or does the vm simply use the highes possible amount of RAM according to the memory profile?
