Downgrade Considerations
PA-7000 Log Forwarding
Card (LFC)
10.0
If you are using an LFC
with a PA-7000 Series
Firewall, when you
upgrade to PAN-OS 10.0,
you must configure the
management plane or
dataplane interface for
the service route because
the LFC ports do not
support the requirements
for the service route. We
recommend using the
dataplane interface for
the Data Services service
route.
