Description

Starting in PAN-OS 10.2, ssl decryption rules can have multiple certificates. A user on live said the xml changed from this:

<type>
    <ssl-inbound-inspection>
        test-cert
    </ssl-inbound-inspection>
</type>

to this:

<type>
    <ssl-inbound-inspection>
        <certificates>
            <member>test-cert</member>
        </certificates>
    </ssl-inbound-inspection>
</type>

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the SSL decryption rule model and its XML serialization or API entry point, then compare the PAN-OS 10.2 structure in the issue with the existing representation. Done means rules can represent and emit multiple certificates using the nested certificates/member structure.
