Enhanced Shared Optimization

Centralizes multi-vsys firewall configuration to eliminate object duplication, reduce memory use, and prevent commit failures
The Enhanced Shared Optimization feature now significantly improves how Panorama pushes configurations to multi-vsys firewalls, resolving critical challenges like object duplication, memory exhaustion, and commit failures.
The feature introduces the Full optimization mode, which lets you move all firewall objects into the shared location of the firewall. This includes the previously excluded objects, such as external dynamic lists (EDLs), Custom URL categories, and various Security Profiles, such as antivirus, antispyware, URL Filtering, and HIP objects. This eliminates object replication across individual virtual systems. It drastically reduces configuration size in typical deployments and prevents commit failures caused by exceeding object limits.
This enhancement streamlines management, increases scalability, and prevents deployments from hitting object limits.
