Global Protect Pre-Logon

L1 Bithead

I'm setting up Global Protect Pre-logon and I have been able to setup the portal and gateway fine. I have hit a brick wall as the only way I have got this working is to log into the laptop and then I log out of the laptop and then the pre-logon is working. When I reboot the laptop and try to connect it is always saying disconnected.

 

I'm using PAN-OS 9.1.4 and Global Protect Client 5.0.10 and using machine certificates.

 

I would be very grateful for any help.

I have now solved the issue.

 

It is to do with the machine certificate that is being auto-enrolled on to the laptop. It didn't have the FQDN of the device in the subject field of the machine certificate.

Hi @Patrick_Jessett,

more info will be needed, what guide you used to Configure Pre-Logon?

Hi

 

We had already setup Global protect but as a user-logon (on demand).

 

This then caused an issue with the remote devices if a users had not logged on to them before so we then thought about moving to pre-logon.

 

I followed the following articles:

I have now solved the issue.
