Forced VPN Connection with GlobalProtect

L3 Networker

Is it possible to force a VPN Connection so the client can only use wifi or ethernet if he is in the office or has a active VPN Connection?

The Requirement from the Customer say that the Laptop are not allowed to be exposed to the internet.

As soon the Laptop is connected to a network it has to establish a vpn or disable the connection.

You can leverage the single sign on feature, so when the laptop having the agent on it, connects within the network and has been  successfully authenticated, a VPN tunnel gets established and he can go out to the internet via the tunnel. If he fails to get authenticated, the user will get identified as an unknown user, and we can configure a rule to block all unknown users. That way he cannot get access to the internet, although he is connected internally in the network. Like Gregoux mentioned as well, you can use the hip checks to deny access to the machines if they do not match a config criteria.

You can create split tunnel by configuring access routes in the global protect gateway.

This way with security policy you can only allow access to ip address that you want and block access to the rest with the security policy.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Where can I configure a rule on the client side that if he is a unknows user traffic is blocked? On the Firewall of course...but on the laptop??

At home there is no PA to configure such things.

I got a test licesne for globalprotect HIP.

Well I'm pretty sure now there is no way I can force a laptop user that he has to be connected to the vpn to be able to use the internet. In HIP I can't check if he can reach a public ip adress and there is also no way to place a firewall rule that would block his traffic if the vpn is not connected.

I need to buy now a Cisco VPN....
