Features in Firewall Migration Manager

The Firewall Migration Manager supports the migration of the Palo Alto Networks Firewall (PAN) configurations to Firewall Threat Defense.

Offers enhanced pre- and post-migration reports for improved user experience and easier analysis of migrated configurations.

Automatically identifies target device version and information for Secure Firewall Management Center and Secure Firewall Threat Defense to ensure accurate configuration alignment.

The Firewall Migration Manager reduces manual effort with automated transition of security policies, network objects, and device configurations from your existing environment to Secure Firewall Threat Defense.

The Firewall Migration Manager dashboard provides a unified, intuitive interface to streamline your migration journey. Designed to improve visibility and operational efficiency, the dashboard offers the following capabilities:

• Migration overview: Monitor the status of all your migration projects in real-time and include counts for completed, in-progress, and error-state migrations.

• Proactive alerting: Stay informed with immediate visibility into recent migration alerts and project details.

• Quick links: Access critical resources directly from the dashboard, including pre-migration checklists, comprehensive video guides, and one-click support ticket creation.

This centralized approach simplifies the transition from third-party or legacy firewalls to next-generation Cisco firewall platforms, ensuring a more organized and manageable migration process.

The Firewall Migration Manager offers an improved graphical user interface that unifies migration tasks in a wizard-driven orchestration platform. Prioritizes visual clarity, parallel task processing, and proactive status monitoring.

This feature automatically scans your configurations to identify items that are either unsupported or unreferenced. This helps you save time by focusing your manual cleanup efforts only on the items that require attention.

Parses enterprise-scale configurations efficiently, handling thousands of rules in minutes.

Keeps migration history across different projects so you can track and revisit previous migrations.

To improve efficiency, this feature allows you to run up to 10 migration processes simultaneously, enabling bulk handling of your network transitions.

The Firewall Migration Manager allows tasks to be paused and resumed at any point without data loss. In-Progress can be accessed from the Recent Alerts tile on the home page or by clicking Migration under the main menu.
