+**Note**: A passphrase on a private key is an extra layer of protection, so even if your private key is discovered, it can't be used without the passphrase. The downside to using a passphrase is that it makes automation harder because human intervention is needed to log on to an instance, or copy files to an instance.
+===== Panorama AWS =====
+Panorama 10.0 is happy with 8 CPU and 32 GB RAM when in Panorama mode. However, when you go to 10.1, it wants 16 CPU.
