Upgrade a ZTP Firewall
Automatically upgrade your a ZTP firewall.
After you successfully add a ZTP firewall to
the Panorama™ management server, configure the target PAN-OS version
of the ZTP firewall. Panorama checks whether PAN-OS version installed
on the ZTP firewall is greater than or equal to the configured target
PAN-OS version after it successfully connects to Panorama for the
first time. If the PAN-OS version installed on the ZTP firewall
is less than the target PAN-OS version, then the ZTP firewall enters
an upgrade cycle until target PAN-OS version is installed.

- Power on the ZTP firewall.When the ZTP firewall connects to Panorama for the first time, it automatically upgrades to the PAN-OS version you selected. If you are upgrading to a PAN-OS maintenance release, the base PAN-OS image is installed first before the target maintenance release is installed.For example, you configured the targetTo SW Versionfor the managed firewall as PAN-OS 10.1.5. On first connection to Panorama, PAN-OS 10.1.0 is installed on the managed firewall first. After PAN-OS 10.1.0 successfully installs, the firewall is automatically upgraded to the target PAN-OS 10.1.5 release.
