What Happens When Licenses Expire?
Find out what happens when one of your Palo Alto Networks
firewall expires.
Palo Alto Networks VM-Series firewall licenses and subscriptions provide
the firewall with added functionality and/or access to a Palo Alto
Networks cloud-delivered service. When a license is within 30 days
of expiration, a warning message displays in the system log daily
until the subscription is renewed or expires. Upon license expiration,
some subscriptions continue to function in a limited capacity, and
others stop operating completely. Here you can find out what happens
when each subscription expires.
The precise moment of license expiry is at the beginning
of the following day at 12:00 AM (GMT). For example, if your license
is scheduled to end on 1/20 you will have functionality for the
remainder of that day. At the start of the new day on 1/21 at 12:00
AM (GMT), the license will expire. All license-related functions
operate on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), regardless of the configured
time zone on the firewall.
