restrict Global Protect connecting to multiple VPN's at same time

Hello Community

Is there a way to restrict Global Protect client from being able to run multiple VPN's at the same time?

We have 2 PA firewalls in different locations for different services, and do not want GP clients accessing both networks at the same time.

Regards

Andrew

Domyou mean the user id or the actual device... i was not aware that a device could connect to 2 gateways at the same time...

@AndrewR211,

As @Mick_Ball pointed out earlier, GlobalProtect can't actually connect to both portals at the same time. So while you can expose both portal addresses via the same agent, an agent can only be connected to one portal at a time.

Thanks both for your replies. Seems the user has one Global Protect Client and one Cisco VPN client! Sorry to have wasted your time.
