• B. Upgrade the firewalls, upgrade Panorama, upgrade the log collectors
• C. Upgrade the log collectors, upgrade the firewalls, upgrade Panorama
• D. Upgrade Panorama, upgrade the log collectors, upgrade the firewalls

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct sequence begins with upgrading Panorama to manage the devices effectively after the upgrade, followed by upgrading the log collectors to ensure they can handle the new logs from the upgraded firewalls. Upgrading the firewalls last ensures that they are fully compatible with the new versions of Panorama and the log collectors.
