Here are my notes for the first-time setup of a Palo Alto Networks hardware firewall using the web interface.
Set computer Ethernet to IP 192.168.1.10. Connect to Management port of Palo Alto Firewall.
In a browser go to https://192.168.1.1
Default credentials: admin/admin
The unit may have e1/1 and e1/2 in the vwire config. If this is not needed, follow this procedure (in order) to remove the vwire config.
- Delete the default security policy, select Policies>Security, select the rule, and click Delete.
- Delete the default virtual wire, select Network>Virtual Wires, select the virtual wire and click Delete.
- Delete the default trust and untrust zones, select Network>Zones, select each zone and click Delete.
- Delete the interface configurations, select NetworkI>nterfaces and then select each interface (ethernet1/1 and ethernet1/2) and click Delete.
Commit the changes.
Need Console Access?
Sometimes console access is needed. Click here for my post on setup via the CLI. Also, I recommend using an all-in-one USB console cable. Click here for my post describing console ports and cables.
