VPN Connection Windows 11

CHannard — Wed, 25 May 2022 15:48:40 GMT

HI All,

How do I create a VPN connection using the Windows 11 VPN client rather than the globalprotect.

My company is facing an issue authenticating when changing their passwords the native globalprotect seems to hold onto the password until it has locked out the user.

Looking to deploy the Windows 11 native VPN client to PCs via intune.

For the GP client... try setting the configuration to not save credentials:

Network -> GlobalProtect -> Portals -> [portal_config] -> Agent -> [config] -> Authentication

Save User Credentials = No

Components that require dynamic passwords = Portals, External gateways-auto, External gateways-manual

Hi Adrian,

Apologies I am new to this and don't have the right url to get to the page when I can click on Network. Are you able to assist? As I am getting all the product updates and version changes etc I believe my account has been setup as an admin.

@CHannard,

The instructions @Adrian_Jensen gave is assuming you are on a firewall/panorama GUI, where Network would be the tab you would want to click on and navigate. Unless you are on a very restrictive admin role, you should see that tab as an option.

Yes, that is the path assuming you have firewall/GUI access as a read-write "Superuser" or "Device administrator" (or a custom Admin Role with Network permissions). You log into your firewall via the web interface on the PaloAlto management interface and then navigate to:
