Question


Will my endpoint automatically reconnect to GlobalProtect after my lifetime value expires?

Environment


  • Palo Alto Networks firewall
  • GlobalProtect configured
  • Any approved endpoint 


Answer


Yes! If your GlobalProtect Gateway is configured with a lifetime value that expires, and the connect method is either Pre-Logon or User-Logon, then your endpoint will automatically reconnect to the Gateway.

Note: This snapshot shows the endpoint's uptime after the lifetime value expired on a Gateway using Pre-Logon as the connect method.
