Enhanced Security Measures in Place: To ensure a safer experience, we’ve implemented additional, temporary security measures for all users.

Folks.
I have a normal Global protect portal for internal staff which works fine.
I now have been asked to provide access for a support organisation which is not staff - not employed by our company - but which needs access to certain devices inside our network.
Does anyone know if there is any way I can restrict what they access via Global Protect? Would a security policy rule on source user work, or is there some other way?
Thanks.

Source zone would be the zone which you assigned to tunnel interface for GP users. You can also check logs and see ehich zone is assigned to GP users.

You can use GP users or groups in FW policy.

The security policy with a specified source user would work perfectly fine, just make sure that you have the source zone setup correctly then setup the rule to only allow access to the machines and the ports that they would need access to.

Hi,
In addition to specifying users or groups in your security rules, you could configure different IP address pools for different types of users (if you have PanOS 7.0+). This way, your staff can configure their servers or other equipment to let VPN connections coming from the staff pool, and not from the support organisation address pool.

hi.
OK, so the source zone would be the zone the VPN terminates on (outside zone), or the one it spits out into?
I'm figuring the former, but I could be shooting in the dark.
thanks

hi.
Haven't upgraded to PanOS 7 yet, so this one's not going to work.
Thanks for suggesting, though.

Thanks - looks like I'm out of luck - because the source zone and destination zone are the same. I might have to fiddle with moving the server into a different zone maybe.
No, scratch that - I'm an idiot.
I put in a rule to allow traffic to the given server - but forgot to put in one to deny everything else!
