IP for portal and gateway in global protect

Hello Experts

Can I use different IP for portal and gateway other than IP assigned to external interface of firewall? Should I need to assign this IP also to external interface of firewall or no need?

Regrds,

Yes, you can use different IP such as a loopback IP. The IP should be assigned to the external zone & reachable from the external side.

@rmonvon Thanks. So you mean I need to assign IP to external interface or loopback interface?

Both options should work and you can choose 1.
