Blocking a host name to access global protect gateway?

L2 Linker

Hi everyone,

 

I’ve been getting a lot failure logins for my GP gateway from a same host name ‘my laptop’ with different ip addresses. 

 

Is there a way to block a host name to access GP gateway?

 

Thanks.

Hi @tinhnho ,

 

You can't block via hostname, but you can via IP. Are you saying that there is a user within your org that is using the same username as you and is trying to login?

Hi JayGolf,

 

No, no one from my organization is using the same username as me to try to log in.

 

There are many attempts from same hostname 'my laptop' that uses different usernames (most of the username are bogus) with different ip addresses. I found a URL below that mentions block a hostname on PanOS 9.1 https://origin-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/9-1/pan-os-web-interface-help/globalprotect/network-...

 

I block multiple IP addresses of that specific hostname but but he always have new IP addresses everytime he attempts.

If we can block a hostname, we maybe able to stop these attempts. I wonder if there is a way.
