on the firewall from the CLI run

show bootstrap status

make sure your Panorama mgmt interface is accessible from the IP's the firewalls are attempting to connect from

make sure you have a valid VM-auth key as well.

Ping works for panorama server

It ahs right auth code

Bootstrap command shows all success.

Not auth code. you have a to generate an auth-key on the Panorama and add it to your init-cfg.txt file when you bootstrap. If you don't have a vm-auth-key then you will not be able to bootstrap to Panorama. So not the auth-code but auth-key
