Migrate Panorama and non-HA Firewalls from BrightCloud to

Perform this procedure to migrate the URL
filtering vendor from BrightCloud to PAN-DB on Panorama and firewalls
when the firewalls are not deployed in a high availability (HA)

Determine which firewalls require new PAN-DB URL
filtering licenses.

Check the URL column to determine which firewalls
have PAN-DB licenses and whether the licenses are valid or expired.
A firewall can have valid licenses for both BrightCloud
and PAN-DB, but only one license can be active.

Active
field
displays
Yes
in the PAN-DB URL Filtering
section.
Purchase new licenses for the firewalls that don’t
