Hi Team,

Any recommendation for this Android 13 version issue ?

[igoerzen0]

Hi,

i face the exact same issue.
I guess we have to go over TAC and create a support case for this.

GP for Windows works fine, some old Android works fine, new Android got this error.(The network connection is unreachable...)
Tried to connect the phone to another company`s GP portal, it works!
The other portal have same configuration, but lower PANOS. Might be random/something else?
If I open my GP portal webpage in Chrome from the android phone I get: ERR_SSL_KEY_USAGE_INCOMPATIBLE
Hope someone figure out this one 🙂
I use PANOS 11.1.1

[Karuppu]

Hi ,may i know your PAN OS version?

[NilsJGabrielsen]

 PANOS 11.1.1

[NilsJGabrielsen]

I gave up the my RootCA and GlobalProtect self signed certificate. Added a free one and GlobalProtect on all mye windows and android devices.
I saved some screenshots on my webpage, hopefully they can help others .

Hi

I have the same error on android 14.

If you have any updates, please let me know.

[NilsJGabrielsen]

it is a cert issue, try with a new cert. @Divomag 

[Karuppu]

Hi @NilsJGabrielsen ,

Good Morning!

Yes ,its a certification issue but when install new certification to the Android 14 version,still it's not working, This is maybe PAN OS issue or i'm not sure.

[NilsJGabrielsen]

Not sure if this is a PANOS og Android issue, but a public cert fixed it for me, you can create one for free on https://app.zerossl.com/certificate/new

Hi, I had a similar issue, "Failure in SSL library, usually a protocol error", now the most recent Android devices and versions force the connection with TLS 1.3, That protocol is not allowed to stablish a communication though GP. You can try to check if changing the TLS/SSL profile min 1.0 and max 1.2 helps. also try to generate a new certificate and in the attributes add the Public Portal IP Address
