I'm trying to use GlobalProtect on a Mac, but it won't connect. I don't know much about Mac in general which definitely won't help me, I'm doing this for someone else and this is my first time using GlobalProtect on one. When I start the app and type the username, password and portal it just says connecting in the status tab. So far I've tried reinstalling the app, restarting the Mac, changing networks, double checking username/password/portal.

Is this on MacOS 10.13 High Sierra?
Go to settings
Security & privacy
General tab
Click Allow on "System software from developer Palo Alto Networks has been blocked..."

Look at the logs and see if it tells you anything. In addition I would make sure that the firewall is actually recieving traffic when you attempt to connect, that would at least verify that macOS isn't reseting the connection before it even leaves the Mac.

@Christian_SvendsenThe Mac is running macOS Sierra 10.12.6. There is no option to allow it.

@BPryI've looked at some of the log files, but they don't really tell me anything.
