The earliest recollection of this bug is traced back to PAN-OS 8.1.16 - July 22, 2025. This bug is fixed in PAN-OS versions 9.1.4, 8.1.16. After upgrading to certain PAN-OS 8.1 and 9.0 versions, for certain configurations using dynamic routing without graceful restart and with Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) enabled, there was a longer traffic hit after an HA failover compared to previous versions. This was due to BFD incorrectly timing admin-down messages for the failover event.
