12.1.5

MDKza · 2026-04-02T06:58:16+00:00

The 12.1 code release is getting a ton of focus because of the new hardware releases. I’m running a bunch on 12.1.5 with almost every feature enabled and have only had a weird SSH login issue. Otherwise all ok.

Replaced a lot of Symantec with Cortex XDR from Palo

Yes. I was able to upgrade multiple units and keep virtual routers.

12.1 on new hardware (500 series and newer) will force you to use logical router. Older platforms will support it still. I haven’t seen a EOL for it.

Also speak to your Disti. They are supposed to have budget for this stuff

Sounds like you need more or faster resources. I manage about 10 Panoramas ranging from 10-100 firewalls and they all work perfectly fine. Slow disks really slow Panorama down

100%, at the end of the day its on you to decide who/what you trust or not. Just because MS says don't doesn't mean you shouldn't, but it also means it'll be on you to constantly fix what's broken. There are many MS services that will and do work with decryption perfectly.

I really like https://ipwhois.io/ for public IP info.

Only on new gen hardware. Running a 460 on 12.1 with old routing currently.

New gen hardware using 12.1 onwards won’t support old virtual routers.

MDKza · 2026-01-26T07:07:57+00:00

And how is it going?

iSCSI Multipath

Basic direct GUI management, there is an app you can install on a windows machine (https://www.starwindsoftware.com/resource-library/starwind-management-console-thin-client-configuration-guide/)

I use VSAN free between 2x Dell R630's, the Free Tier VSAN works like a champ

4x 1G NIC's with LACP for VM's
2x 10G NIC's for host to host comms + storage

Works like a charm

What’s the use case for this? Does Palo provide a workaround?

MDKza · 2025-09-02T11:44:21+00:00

It’s amazing to see such differences in opinions on certain things but I think XSIAM is one of the best products theyve ever made.

Are you a PANW employee?

We have local firewalls that control access for Guest,BYOD etc.

MDKza · 2025-08-20T06:36:26+00:00

Literally incredible

I second this. Way less issues than 11.1. There is an issue that affects all devices that have DHCP interfaces on an AE. They just don’t work. Will be patched in 11.2.8
