Workflows: Mobile Users

Workflows: Mobile Users

1. Connect to Prisma Access.
   Determine how mobile users in the location you’re setting up should connect to Prisma Access. You can divide your mobile user license between GlobalProtect and explicit proxy connections; some users can connect through GlobalProtect and others through explicit proxy.
   The GlobalProtect app installed on mobile user devices sends traffic to Prisma Access.
2. Set up the infrastructure.
   Set up basic infrastructure settings and then configure the infrastructure settings that are specific to your connection type (GlobalProtect or Explicit Proxy).
   A proxy auto-config (PAC) file on mobile user devices redirects browser traffic to Prisma Access.
3. Choose the Prisma Access Location.
   The map displays the global regions where you can deploy Prisma Access for Users: North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Middle East, Asia, Japan, and ANZ (Australia and New Zealand). In addition, Prisma Access provides multiple locations within each region to ensure that your users can connect to a location that provides a user experience tailored to the users’ locale. For the best performance, Select All. Alternatively, select the specific locations within each selected region where your users will need access. By limiting your deployment to a single region, you can have more granular control over your deployed regions and exclude regions required by your policy or industry regulations.
4. Add the Prisma Access Locations.
   Configure the settings to add the Prisma Access locations you want to support your users.
5. Authenticate Mobile Users.
   Set up User Authentication so that only legitimate users have access to your services and applications. To test your setup, you can add users that Prisma Access authenticates locally, or you can go straight to setting up enterprise-level authentication.
