Environment


  • Panorama
  • PANOS >=10.1.7
  • Pair of PA firewalls in high availability active passive


Answer


  • When you create a new security rule and push to HA cluster it will show up in both nodes by design.
  • However, when it comes to fields 'last received update', 'created' and 'modified' these are populated in Panorama  only for currently active firewall, and this is by design.
  • Go to Policies > Pre/Post Rules > click on the value in Rule usage column - data visible only for active node Lab40...

  • If you wish above fields to be populated on passive device and seen in Panorama, you would need to failover to passive node. After 5 minutes data will be populated in Panorama.
