Initially GlobalProtect agent will connect to portal and get list of gateways.
After that GlobalProtect agent will establish VPN tunnel to one of gateways (if all gateways have same priority then latency is deciding factor which gateway is chosen).
GlobalProtect agent will then cache this list of gateways. By default for 24 hours before it needs to talk to portal again.
You can disable portal web login but portal itself needs to exist (as mentioned in link shared previously).

Hi, thanks for the comment, I was meant to say how to disable the web portal itself (from the firewall side), so palo alto does not listen on 443 to launch the webpage once url us entered

@nevolex I do not think it is possible by design to do this.
As GP uses IPSEC/SSL connection to work.

As per my understanding the user is asking if Portal config is not there not the login page.
Thanks for the reply.
