Thanks a lot Matt !!!! I'm preparing for PCNSA, after reviewing too many videos and failing to setup a PA lab, i have finally found this gem of a video which helped me setup a successful PA lab. Please make more palo alto videos :)
GREAT VIDEO!!! im studying palo alto right now. This really helped with undestanding my interfaces. I smashed the sub button and shared with people I know. Great job!!!
what a great walk thru this very detailed and was able to follow and set my lab up. I added in a Panorama and now i have everything i need for my PCNSE exam labwork.
Thanks a lot bro. I literally watched 4-5 videos on youtube for the palo alto vm installation but nothing worked. I followed your method and everything worked like a charm. I just have a request to please make a video on how to install kali and use it to test palo alto firewalls. I think there is not a single video on youtube for the testing of PA using kali linux. Your reply is awaited bro. Thanks again!
Hey Zester, I'm glad you now have your own lab setup. Yes I'm working on Kali content, I'm working my way through the Palo Alto NGFW fundermentals content and then onto the more advanced topics..
Whenever I set up the PA VM on VMWare it says the Firewall tried to activate promiscuous mode on the two custom interfaces but was blocked. Is this required?
The "clue" for the DMZ access to Outside is a bit misleading...The problem is not a Nat missing policy, it is a Security missing policy, i forgive you because your video has just helped me sooooo so much. thanks a lot bro!!! :) x 10000
Recently I requested an Eval image of Palo alto when I install it in vmware pro 16 after boot it shows an error "Bits 55-60 of /proc/PID/pagemap entries are about to stop being page-shift some time soon". And after that message it says " stopping pan software" and the VM machine stopped, I start the VM again and it still showing the same message and stop working. Any help on that, please?
I am unable to ping the pa inside interface from the tiny linux machine, i have also enabled the ping in management profile and applied it to inside interface. Please help me
I tried to follow the exact same steps, but using a Windows 10 VM instead of the Tiny Core Client. I wasn't able to reach the FW's interface. Any ideas?
Really good video!!!! Works on Workstation 15.5 pro and Panos 9.1.9, side note in this version of Panos you have to change the default admin password or you will get stuck in a loop of changing passwords.
Hi i'm using VMware workstation 16 player getting virtual IP from which i can access to Palo Alto page, using default credentials for login till yesterday it was working but from today using default or any random credentials getting no response it's like website is freeze, tried to open in another browser using default credential getting same issue. Can you help me what to do...
Hey Rohan, I've just taken a look at my config, the first network adapter in the list in VMware Worksation are set to Bridged (Automatic) for DHCP from my home router. Network adpter 3 is set as a custom:specfic virtual network VMnet3(host only) device status "connected" is ticked and "connect at power on" is ticked. In the firewall WebUI check that eth1/3 is set to a layer3 interface , assign to a Virtual Router and security zone and commit. If the interface is still down perform a reboot. Let me know how you get on.
I hope you can help me, I get a invalid syntex error when I type set deviceconfig system ip-adress 192.168.21.21 netmask 255.255.255.0 default gateway 1923168.21.254 dns-setting servers primary 8.8.8.8 I use my ip adress and still have the error
Yes that will happen unless you make the IP address persistent. Take a look at this blog iotbytes.wordpress.com/assign-persistent-static-ip-address-to-microcore-tiny-linux/
OMG !!! After long search and spending so many days finally i have a lab . Thank you so much . One more thing please I want to see Monitor Traffic tab. is there any way ??. i dont have license
I have imported PA-VM-ESXI-9.0.11. When I try to login with admin/admin, it says login incorrect. Sometimes it works and asks me for old password, new password, confirm password, and then goes back to PA-VM login. When I try to login again, it asks the same. It is like a loop.
You have to wait 10 minutes after booting up the VM. Then when you enter the admin admin credentials, change the password to something complex, like for example "eX@mple123"
Thank you for posting your lab setup. I have window 10 machine with vmware workstation 15 and 16 Gig of Ram, do think that good enough to run PA VM, Panorama and Windows 10 VM?
Hey Essenxia1, you would need to speak to Palo Alto Networks representative or maybe if you work in the industry a Palo Alto NGFW reseller, for example check CDW out. www.cdw.com/search/?b=PTO&enkwrd=palo+alto&key=palo+alto%7clab%7Cvm&ln=2
I know that it is difficult to have some time from your busy schedule for creating high quality educational video ..Still Just a small suggestion if you can think of ..Please send the ppt with step by step procedure to do home lab at home if possible .
I was able to download vlc3 instead of vlc. Also, downloaded a different editor and terminal. Your video was very helpful and I appreciate this tutorial!
You may struggle to run all these Palo VM’s .Take a look at these system requirement documents. docs.paloaltonetworks.com/vm-series/8-0/vm-series-deployment/about-the-vm-series-firewall/vm-series-models/vm-series-system-requirements docs.paloaltonetworks.com/panorama/8-1/panorama-admin/set-up-panorama/set-up-the-panorama-virtual-appliance/setup-prerequisites-for-the-panorama-virtual-appliance Let me know how you get on.
After days of research I found a perfect starter Palo lab environment! You are doing the lords work my friend!
Hey Gary, I’m glad that you found the video useful. Happy labbing!
I don't understand how is it possible that such a great channel has only 1.19k subscribers!
Thank you Faisal, It’s work in progress! 😀
Thanks a lot Matt !!!! I'm preparing for PCNSA, after reviewing too many videos and failing to setup a PA lab, i have finally found this gem of a video which helped me setup a successful PA lab. Please make more palo alto videos :)
Hey Radha, glad the video was useful to you.

Hi sir, why when i running PA-VM 10.0.4 Trial in vmware pro 16, gets shutdown after a minute. please help me, there are solution?
This is the best lab ever. Thank you!
Whenever I set up the PA VM on VMWare it says the Firewall tried to activate promiscuous mode on the two custom interfaces but was blocked. Is this required?
thank you so much!But I still can't figure out why I can't access outside before NAT.
The "clue" for the DMZ access to Outside is a bit misleading...The problem is not a Nat missing policy, it is a Security missing policy, i forgive you because your video has just helped me sooooo so much. thanks a lot bro!!! :) x 10000
Hey Jordi, glad you worked it out! Your more than welcome 😀
Brilliant video. Very clear explanations and useful visuals!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I get PA-HDF login, it is not changing, what is the minimum memory and HDD requirement to install Palo on VMware workstation
Hi
Recently I requested an Eval image of Palo alto when I install it in vmware pro 16 after boot it shows an error "Bits 55-60 of /proc/PID/pagemap entries are about to stop being page-shift some time soon".
And after that message it says " stopping pan software" and the VM machine stopped, I start the VM again and it still showing the same message and stop working.
Any help on that, please?
Hi there,
I got this to work successfully with a vm machine behind the palo alto.
Do you know how to set up a physical machine behind the vm firewall
This video definitely made me push that subscribe button. Thanks a lot.
Awesome, thank you!
@@MBTechTalker Now a Palo Alto requires support login to get it. 😥
Thank you so much. You explained everything so clearly
You're very welcome!
Thank you good sir, straight to the point and clear. keep up
Thanks Ahmed, more videos to come!
great stuff, keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Hello sir. Can we do the static route on palo alto if I don't have a router, in order to ping from kali to inside network vise versa?
How can I cofigure a static route connection, if I don't have a router to make a connection from home net (management pc) to kali and inside network?
unable to find the ova,can you send me the link
I am unable to ping the pa inside interface from the tiny linux machine, i have also enabled the ping in management profile and applied it to inside interface. Please help me
Can you please point me to the location of the ova file?
I tried to follow the exact same steps, but using a Windows 10 VM instead of the Tiny Core Client. I wasn't able to reach the FW's interface. Any ideas?
Hi Elie, did you use ping to test connectivity? Can you see any traffic in the traffic logs?
Really good video!!!! Works on Workstation 15.5 pro and Panos 9.1.9, side note in this version of Panos you have to change the default admin password or you will get stuck in a loop of changing passwords.
Hey K1ng Koo5, glad you liked the video. Yes your right, I've come across this.
Thanks for this. Please how do I get the oVA file? I cant find it on the support site
Outstanding, thank you very very much, Sir,

Hi Khanmukit. Are you able to login to the firewall successfully using the CLI?
Great job! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
I just reconfigure a new palo for lab use and eth1/3 not coming up like yours its red but in vmware I see the 192.16.4.254/24 ip on the int.
Hey Rohan, I've just taken a look at my config, the first network adapter in the list in VMware Worksation are set to Bridged (Automatic) for DHCP from my home router.
Network adpter 3 is set as a custom:specfic virtual network VMnet3(host only) device status "connected" is ticked and "connect at power on" is ticked. In the firewall WebUI check that eth1/3 is set to a layer3 interface , assign to a Virtual Router and security zone and commit. If the interface is still down perform a reboot.

Big thanks !
You're welcome!
Great Man Thanks !
You're welcome!
I hope you can help me, I get a invalid syntex error when I type set deviceconfig system ip-adress 192.168.21.21 netmask 255.255.255.0 default gateway 1923168.21.254 dns-setting servers primary 8.8.8.8 I use my ip adress and still have the error
I have got my TC working and passing traffic via the PA, only problem is when I restart the TC VM it looses the static IP.
Yes that will happen unless you make the IP address persistent. Take a look at this blog iotbytes.wordpress.com/assign-persistent-static-ip-address-to-microcore-tiny-linux/
OMG !!! After long search and spending so many days finally i have a lab . Thank you so much .
One more thing please I want to see Monitor Traffic tab. is there any way ??. i dont have license
Hey Sabir, thats brilliant! You will need to get a license to see traffic log on the firewall.
I have imported PA-VM-ESXI-9.0.11. When I try to login with admin/admin, it says login incorrect. Sometimes it works and asks me for old password, new password, confirm password, and then goes back to PA-VM login. When I try to login again, it asks the same. It is like a loop.
Yep, is the same behavior for me. When you enter, try to add another user with admin privileges and test access in the next time.
You have to wait 10 minutes after booting up the VM. Then when you enter the admin admin credentials, change the password to something complex, like for example "eX@mple123"
Thank you for posting your lab setup. I have window 10 machine with vmware workstation 15 and 16 Gig of Ram, do think that good enough to run PA VM, Panorama and Windows 10 VM?
Your Welcome Amin, What processor does your PC run?
Good tutorial thanks
Glad you liked it!
Awesome man
You're welcome!
sir the ip-address 192.168.21.21 im giving on the goole chrome so it is not working kindly resolve this issue
How can I get a trial license in order to monitor traffic?
Hey Essenxia1, you would need to speak to Palo Alto Networks representative or maybe if you work in the industry a Palo Alto NGFW reseller, for example check CDW out. www.cdw.com/search/?b=PTO&enkwrd=palo+alto&key=palo+alto%7clab%7Cvm&ln=2
Hi, i am not able to ping10.3.3.254
I know that it is difficult to have some time from your busy schedule for creating high quality educational video ..Still Just a small suggestion if you can think of ..Please send the ppt with step by step procedure to do home lab at home if possible .
Your right Deepak, I'm very busy at the moment, and I already have a long list of videos that I'm working on. Thanks for your support :-)
Is OVA free?
Hey D.S if you have a Palo Alto Networks support account you can download the OVA for free from the support website.
Its hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :) Thanks @MBTechTalker
Your welcome Rohan, let me know if you get your lab up and running.
In fact i have binded to vmnet3
Apps -- nano, vlc, and lxterminal are failing to install. wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found. All of the other apps load just fine.
I was able to download vlc3 instead of vlc. Also, downloaded a different editor and terminal. Your video was very helpful and I appreciate this tutorial!
Hi Maria, yes that can happen, glad you sorted it though, thanks for watching!
I have a AMD A10-6700 APU Radeon HD graphics 3.70GHz
