Summary

In this chapter, you have learned how to upgrade the Panorama management system, log collectors, and firewalls. You are also able to upgrade clusters in such a way that it will cause no or minimal impact on your business, and can plan in advance which steps will need to be taken to ensure that the upgrade goes smoothly. You can also roll back in the event of failure, or gracefully downgrade if needed. You also know which precautions need to be taken when upgrading an older or smaller form factor device.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to set up log collectors and set them up redundantly, as well as how to create custom reports.

If you’re preparing for the PCNSE, keep in mind the difference between major, feature, and maintenance releases and how upgrades should be performed. A base image is needed before a maintenance release can be installed.
