Notes for Panorama Advanced:

Local PanOS firewall rules are not supported.
Visibility for Dynamic Address Groups (DAGs) and Panorama Tags in View Policy, Rule Viewer, Topology.
Panorama 8 and earlier is no longer supported.
If a rule on the Panorama device has Application = Any and Service = Application Default, TOS inaccurately considers the rule to be Service = Any. This limitation applies to all TOS calculations, such as shadowing, violations, matching rules, Verifier and Designer.
