Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Additional details
Usage instructions
See documentation for detailed steps to set admin password before using the web interface of VM-Series. Once the instance is running, connect to it using a SSH client with the private key file used to launch the instance. For example: ssh -i <privatekey.pem> admin@<EIP or private IP of eth0> Then use the PAN-OS CLI commands "configure", "set mgt-config users admin password" and "commit" commands to set the password.

I love the consistency of the firewall, it generally works well. It works well enough that most of the time I don't realize that it's doing anything at all.

What do you like best about the product?
My role as a Cyber Security Engineer in the Caribbean's leading MSPs has had me involved with all sorts of technoliogies and after testing this vm for myself left me astounded with the Strong Security and Threat protection including Deep pack inspectopon, threat prevention against the latest vulnerabilites is a strong backing for any firewall. Along with the Cloud Integration for the different platform like Azure and AWS make deployment so much easier.
The UI that is built into the Palo Alto Firewall is a breeze to use and makes implementation less of a hastle.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is minimal things I personally dislike about the Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Virtual Firewall but it was noticed that during peak traffic the performance has seen a drastic dip once a lot of traffic is transversing the network. Also tied with the high cost of licensing will add to the cons.
