Explanation
Three settings are essential: (1) IP address - required for the management interface to be reachable for administrative access via SSH, HTTPS, or Panorama. (2) DNS server - required to resolve hostnames such as updates.paloaltonetworks.com so the firewall can download dynamic content updates. (3) NTP - required to ensure accurate timestamps for logs, certificates, and update scheduling; without accurate time, dynamic update checks can fail due to certificate validation errors. MTU is optional and service routes are a separate routing construct, not a management interface setting.
