License for SSL VPN (GP Client)

MPI-AE — Thu, 24 Nov 2016 09:10:51 GMT

Hey guys,

We have a PA 200 as lab firewall and I want to setup SSL vpn.

Can you tell me which licenses I need for it?

The GP window (Device -> GP Client) is completely empty. When I check for new versions, it says "The device does not have support".

The same if I want to check for new PAN OS Software.

I thougt it would be sufficient with the Lab Bundle License ?

Thank you!

The lab bundle has expired (the 'lab bundle' is the sum of all the licences listed below, which have all expired)

you'll need a support license to access all the software you need (the GP client and possibly a PAN-OS upgrade) but you won't need a license to set up 'simple' ssl vpn

the gateway license is only required if you need to perform HIP checks etc.

As @reaper pointed out you don't have any active licenses according to your screenshot besides the GP portal license which no longer needs to be renewed. You will need to get in contact with your sales rep and renew your lab licenses to be able to actually donwload anything again. If you would have installed any of the GP clients when you had active licenses you would still be able to setup this portal; however since you never donwloaded any of the client software you will need to renew the lab bundle.
