Question
Are Clientless VPN users assigned an IP from the Mobile User IP Pool?
Environment
- Prisma Access Mobile Users
- Global Protect Clientless VPN
- Global Protect Portal
Answer
- No, Mobile Users using the Clientless VPN Portal do not get IP address assigned from the Mobile Users IP Pool.
- Prisma Access portal will use an internal loopback IP address. This loopback IP address is assigned from the infrastructure subnet configured during the initial Prisma Access onboarding/deployment.
Additional Information
Example of a user session where 10.1.0.0/24 is used as the infrastructure subnet.
