Skip Software Version Upgrade

You can now skip software versions when upgrading PAN-OS.
In PAN-OS 11.0, you can now skip up to three software versions when upgrading or downgrading standalone devices or Panorama managed devices running PAN-OS 10.1 or a later release. This feature builds on the Simplified Software Upgrade process introduced in PAN-OS 10.2, which includes capabilities such as a multi-image download option and a pre-install validation check, to make the upgrade process even faster.
