Configure Lockdown Mode for Always On Connect Method on Android Endpoints Using Microsoft
Intune
Set up device restrictions for always-on.
For devices configured with always on connect method, you must enable lockdown, which
forces the secure connection to always be on and connected in addition to disabling
network access when the app is not connected.
For a demonstration of how to configure lockdown mode, watch this video.
On the Microsoft Intune admin center, navigate to DevicesAndroidConfiguration.
Click CreateNew Policy.
Set Platform to Android
Enterprise and Profile type to
Device restrictions and then click
Create.
Enter a name and description and click Next.
Expand Connectivity and enable Always-on VPN
(work profile-level).
Set the VPN client to Palo Alto Networks
GlobalProtect.
Enable Lockdown mode if required.
The Lockdown mode is similar to the Enforce GlobalProtect for Network Access
feature and ensures that all network traffic from Android endpoints passes
through the GlobalProtect app, thereby enforcing security policies and
preventing unauthorized access. When enabled, it blocks all network traffic
on the endpoint until a connection to the GlobalProtect gateway is
established.

Assign the policy to included user groups and click
