Support outlook
No EOL announcedPalo Alto Networks has not announced end-of-sale or end-of-service-life for the Palo Alto Networks PA-500 Series, and nobody can tell you when it will. What can be shown is what Palo Alto Networks has actually done on the 29 of its products where both dates are published — in line with the 60-month norm — 86% of Palo Alto Networks's pairs land within 3 months of exactly 60.
This is Palo Alto Networks's published history on other products — not a prediction for the Palo Alto Networks PA-500 Series. EOSL.ai publishes a lifecycle date for this model only when Palo Alto Networks does, and this page changes the day that happens. Every pair behind these figures comes from a Palo Alto Networks bulletin linked on that product's own page. How this is measured →
Options from here
The Palo Alto Networks PA-500 Series is still supported. Options to plan around, in rough priority:
Current product, fully supported. Nothing to plan around.
Long runway ahead; fine for new deployments.
Stay on a supported software release.
We flag this page the moment the vendor announces end-of-life.
Independent and informational. EOSL.ai sells no hardware and no maintenance, and lists no paid placements. Third-party maintenance keeps unsupported gear in production past the OEM cutoff; whether it fits depends on the role the asset plays.
