Hello,
As per the PA document -
GlobalProtect uses a network discovery method to select the best available gateway from the available multiple gateway options. GlobalProtect attempts to communicate with all the gateways and uses criteria such as gateway priority, load, and response time from the gateway to determine the best available gateway to connect.
Can someone clarify which load is checked—endpoint load (CPU, etc.) or gateway firewall load (CPU, utilization, etc.)?
