Symptom
- Configuring new aggregated interface on Panorama managed Firewall.
- Configuring an AE ID with one of the suggested AE numbers results in a successful commit to Panorama.
- When using "Push" to push the the configuration to the Firewall, it fails with error similar to below:
Validation Error: network -> interface -> aggregate-ethernet -> ae20 'ae20' is invalid network -> interface -> aggregate-ethernet is invalid Warning: interface ethernet1/1 lacp port-priority is ignored because lacp is not enabled on ae20. (Module: l2ctrld) Commit failed
Environment
- Panorama managed Firewall
- Supported PAN-OS
- Aggregate Ethernet (AE)
Cause
When creating a new aggregated interface from Panorama, the aggregation group ID range is displayed as 1-32
When creating the aggregated interface directly on the firewall, the range supported on the firewall is displayed. In this case the range is 1-14 for PA-5420
Resolution
- Ignore the suggested AE ID's presented in Panorama
- Configure an AE ID in the range that appears on the specific firewall that is being pushed to.
- Commit will be successful on the Firewall.
