Palo Alto Networking

About Palo Alto networking

Palo Alto Networks hardware from Doha stock for businesses and integrators in Qatar, starting with PA-Series firewalls. Other Palo Alto models can be sourced on request to extend an existing estate.

This is ServerDove's Palo Alto Networks brand page. The stocked range is PA-Series firewalls, and other Palo Alto hardware can be sourced on request. It is aimed at organisations that already run Palo Alto and need another unit for a new branch, a spare or a high-availability partner, and at integrators who need hardware delivered in Qatar for a Palo Alto project.

Palo Alto's hardware range is built around its firewalls. For model details, sizing and subscriptions, see Palo Alto firewalls.

Adding a unit to an existing Palo Alto estate

  • PAN-OS version: Panorama must run the same or a later version than the firewalls it manages. Check the new unit can run the version you use.
  • High availability: a pair should be the same model on the same PAN-OS version with matching licences.
  • Subscriptions: each unit carries its own, registered to its serial number with Palo Alto Networks.
  • Previously owned units: Palo Alto sets the rules for registering them, so confirm before ordering.

Around the firewall

A branch firewall is only part of the site. It needs switching behind it, and often PoE for phones, cameras and access points. Palo Alto does not make switches, so pair it with any standards-based switch from network switches. If the branch will connect back to head office by VPN, check the head-office firewall has capacity for another tunnel.
