A bootstrap USB flash drive has been prepared using a Windows workstation to load the initial configuration of a Palo Alto Networks firewall that was previously being used in a lab. The USB flash drive was formatted using file system FAT32 and the initial configuration is stored in a file named init-cfg txt. The firewall is currently running PAN-OS 10.0 and using a lab config.
The contents of init-cfg txi in the USB flash drive are as follows:
The USB flash drive has been inserted in the firewalls' USB port, and the firewall has been restarted using command:> request resort system
Upon restart, the firewall fails to begin the bootstrapping process.
The failure is caused because
- A . Firewall must be in factory default state or have all private data deleted for bootstrapping
B. The hostname is a required parameter, but it is missing in init-cfg txt
C. The USB must be formatted using the ext3 file system, FAT32 is not supported
D. PANOS version must be 91.x at a minimum but the firewall is running 10.0.x
E. The bootstrap.xml file is a required file but it is missing
