Global Protect Portal Failures

L1 Bithead

Our organization has started noticing that every 24 hours (give or take an hour) new connections to our Global Protect VPN service is rejecting new connections to the appliance. We also notice that the portal landing page stops responding and issues a generic SSL Error and the page cannot be displayed. The issue is only resolved by rebooting the firewall.

 

We are running an Azure VM-300 and have roughly 1000 users connecting throughout the day. 

 

No major changes have recently occured to the configuration.

 

Version 9.0.5.xfr

GP Version 5.0.5

 

Any thoughts?

Hi Inclusa-Admin,

 

Can you collect client logs when this happens next and post a snippet (for the exact time stamp) in comments? Can you also let me know since when is this behaviour occurring? 

 

Regards,

Varun

This issue started occurring on Monday morning. We had recently updated our domain certificate last week, but did not see any issues up until the past week. The following error is what I am seeing in the logs

Hi Inclusa-Admin,

 

Can you check this reddit post and see if the issue is similar? https://www.reddit.com/r/paloaltonetworks/comments/702d6n/question_err_ssl_protocol_error_globalprot...

 

 

If not, please open a TAC case

Thanks for the information. We are not using a SHA1 cert and I do have a TAC case open at this time. The strange thing is everything was working without issue up until Monday of this week. Rebooting the firewall is a fix, but not the one I like.

 Did TAC ever find a solution to this?

Hey Inclusa-Admin.  I think we are facing a similar problem that is intermittent.  Were you able to find a solution?

@DSBIII 

 

Please look at this link below for recommended version of GP client.

https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/customer-resources/support-pan-os-software-release-guidance/ta-...

 

I have see many times with GP upgrading the software to recommended version fixes the issues.

 

Regards
