Global protect question

L4 Transporter
I've seen multiple videos on global protect and need clarification. My first question is do you need to configure a static route on virtual router? Second quezon is to you need to configure NAT? Tutorial I've seen sometimes so these configurations some don't.

Hi Clyde

 

Purely technically your device does not need to be configured with a default route nor NAT

 

If your device is set up with appropriate subnet routes or PolicyBasedForwarding to make sure traffic is returned to the appropriate segment, a default gateway can be left blank, although this would be an uncommon setup (most deployments will have a default gateway at least as a form of fallback)

 

If your GP connections will only be allowed access to internal resources (local web-access vs through the gateway), NAT is also not necessary

 

if you could add some details about the deployment you might be considering, we can provide more feedback
