How to Collect Logs from GlobalProtect 6.0 Clients

• There are 2 different ways that you can get log files from GlobalProtect inside the "Troubleshoot" tab. 
• The first way to see the logs is to Start and Stop the logs to view them live. This can be helpful to start and stop the logs to capture a certain Connection issue or another event.

1. Start by right-clicking the GlobalProtect icon on the taskbar

2. Then click the triple-bar icon and click Settings

3. On the GlobalProtect Agent window, go to the Troubleshooting tab, click Advanced, and select Logs.

1. Set Log type to PanGP Service. The PanGP Service (Windows Service) logs every connection attempt and all errors encountered during that time.
2. Set Debug Level to Debug
3. Before a certain event happens, click Start to start the logs. After the event, click Stop to stop the logs.

4. After you have logs on the screen, you can take a screenshot, or just scroll through the event as it is happening. This can help show exactly what is going on when the issue occurs. 

4. The second way to collect logs is from the same Troubleshooting window, click the Collect Logs button.

1. This will bring up the Save Logs window. Click the Open Folder button

2. This brings up a Windows Explorer window. Look for the GlobalProtectlogs.zip file.  This is what you can unzip yourself or send off to Support so they can help troubleshoot what is going on.
