I was excited when I saw that 7.5 is going to support binary downloads. I'm hoping that will allow me to download configs from some PA-200 firewalls as XML, rather than the text (?) output that is currently getting pulled.
I opened a case a few months back with support and they basically said it can't be done currently (7.4.1). I'm hoping this can now happen?
I then tried to get SCP working to download manually, but there was a bug with SCP/TFTP server that was preventing this from happening (spent 2 hours on screenshare with support and we were unable to get the TFTP server to start and run properly.
So I'm hopeful in 7.5 that either I can download the configs natively, or TFTP server is now working properly or better yet, BOTH!
Any tips or tricks greatly appreciated.
