User reviews
Okay a ray of sunshine for you all; the source code for the plugin: https://github.com/jtschichold/panwachrome and https://github.com/jtschichold/stratachrome If someone can look into it and advise what it would take to get it working again with newer version of panos that would be great.

Would be wonderful if the tool was updated to support PANOS 10.x. It fills a need thats still missing from the Firewall and Panorama GUI
