Using the Migration Tool 3.0 for an APP-ID Migration from Panorama Log<br \/>\n<\/a>Posted Apr 10, 2015<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I did an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/products\/technologies\/app-id.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">APP-ID<\/a> migration from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/network-security\/panorama\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Panorama<\/a> using the <a

my setup:<\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>All policies configured\/pushed through Panorama DG, the firewall did not have a local policy.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>All log were forwarded to Panorama and Panorama can see the traffic logs.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The firewall is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/products\/platforms\/firewalls\/pa-7050\/overview.html\" target=\"_blank\"

are some caveats I learned:\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Make sure you are using the latest version of the Migration Tool 3.0.\u00a0 The older version still had some issues reading logs from Panorama, the latest is best.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>In the log connector section and for the connected device chose the actual firewall, not Panorama.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The log source should be Panaroma.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>If possible, the machine running Migration Tool 3.0 should have local connectivity to Panorama to reduce the latency.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>In my previous experiences with the tool I was using VPN to connect Panorama, which caused the tool to get stuck during the APP-ID migration process.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Start the log period with small intervals to make sure it works first, then switch to a longer time frame such as 30 days.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Please let me know if you have any questions about my experience using the
