PA-800 Front Panel
The following image shows the front panel of the PA-800 Series firewall and the table describes each front
panel component. The only differences between the PA-820 (shown) and PA-850 front panel is the model
name and the Ethernet port speeds as described in the table.
Item Component Description
1 Ethernet ports 1 through 4 Four RJ-45 10/100/1000Mbps ports for network traffic.
You can set the link speed and duplex or choose autonegotiate.
2 SFP ports 5 through 8 Four small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports for network
traffic.
3 SFP/SFP+ ports 9 through 12 These ports are for network traffic and their speed varies
depending on your firewall and configuration.
PA-820 Firewalls
Four 1Gbps SFP ports; you cannot reconfigure these
ports.
PA-850 Firewalls
Four 1Gbps SFP ports or four 10Gbps SFP+ ports
(default); you can specify which you want to use but you
cannot mix the two.
You can install up to 4 of the same type transceivers (SFP
or SFP+) as needed but if you install SFP transceivers,
then you also need to reconfigure ports 9 through 12 (as a
group) to SFP using the command line interface (CLI).
To confirm the current settings for these four ports, run
the following command:
admin@PA-850> show system setting
ports-9-12-speedDevice Ports 9-12 mode:
sfp+
The output shows that the ports are set to SFP+. If the
firewall is not already set to the correct port type for your
transceivers, use the set system setting ports-9-12-speed
command. For example, if the output shows that these
ports are set to SFP+ and you are using SFP transceivers,
then run the following commands to change the port type
from SFP+ to SFP and then restart the firewall to apply
the change:

admin@PA-850> request restart system
4 HA1 and HA2 ports Two RJ-45 10/100/1000Mbps ports for high-availability
control (HA1) and synchronization (HA2).
5 MGT port Use this Ethernet 10/100/1000Mbps port to access the
management web interface and perform administrative
tasks. The firewall also uses this port for management
services, such as retrieving licenses and updating the
threat and application signatures.
6 CONSOLE port (RJ-45) Use this port to connect a management computer to the
firewall using a 9-pin serial to RJ-45 cable and terminal
emulation software.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot
messages, the Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the
command line interface (CLI).
If your management computer does not
have a serial port, use a USB-to-serial
converter.
Use the following settings to configure your terminal
emulation software to connect to the console port:
• Data rate: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: none
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None
7 USB port Use the USB port to bootstrap the firewall.
Bootstrapping enables you to provision the firewall with
a specific PAN-OS configuration and then license it and
make it operational on your network.
8 CONSOLE port (Micro USB) Use this port to connect a management computer to the
firewall using a standard Type-A USB-to-micro USB cable.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot
messages, the Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the
command line interface (CLI).
