The first time you launch the GlobalProtect
app for Android, you will be prompted to read and acknowledge a
disclosure about the information that may be collected by the app.
After that, the way you proceed depends on how your administrator
has configured the app. In some cases, you will automatically be
logged in to GlobalProtect and connected to your corporate network
after acknowledging the disclosure. Or, your administrator may have
configured the app to require you to enter the GlobalProtect portal
address and/or supply your domain credentials to authenticate to
GlobalProtect.
On-Demand (Remote Access VPN) connection
experience:
When your GlobalProtect administrator configures
GlobalProtect with the On-Demand connect method, you must launch
the GlobalProtect app to initiate the connection manually. After
the connection initiates, you can TAP TO CONNECT to
establish the GlobalProtect connection. If your administrator enables
GlobalProtect to save your user credentials, the connection establishes
without requiring further user interaction. Otherwise you will need
to enter your credentials to connect to GlobalProtect and access
your organization’s resources.
Always On connection experience:
When your GlobalProtect
administrator configures GlobalProtect with the Always On connect
method, the connection initiates automatically. Depending on whether
your administrator configures the GlobalProtect app to save your
user credentials, you can establish the GlobalProtect connection
without launching the app. If your administrator enables GlobalProtect
to save your credentials, the connection establishes automatically
without requiring any user interaction. Otherwise you will need
to enter your credentials to connect.
