Use the GlobalProtect App for Linux

• Connect to a GlobalProtect portal.
  Use the globalprotect connect --portal <gp-portal> command where <gp-portal> is the IP address or FQDN of your GlobalProtect portal.
  For example:

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  connect --portal myportal.example.com
  Retrieving configuration...                                            
  Disconnected
  myportal.example.com - portal:local:Enter login credentials
  username:user1
  Password:
  Retrieving configuration...                                            
  Discovering network...
  Connecting...
  Connected
  

  When you use certificate-based authentication, the first time you connect without a root CA certificate, the GlobalProtect app and GlobalProtect portal exchange certificates. The GlobalProtect app displays a certificate error, which you must acknowledge before you authenticate. When you next connect, you will not be prompted with the certificate error message.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  connect --portal myportal.example.com
  Retrieving configuration...                                            
  Disconnected
  There is a problem with the security certificate, so the identity of 10.3.188.61 cannot be verified. Please contact the Help Desk for your organization to have the issue rectified.
  Warning: The communication with 10.3.188.61 may have been compromised. We recommend that you do not continue with this connection.

  You can also specify a username in the command using the --username <username> option. The GlobalProtect app prompts you to authenticate and, if you specified the username option, confirm your username.
• Import a certificate.
  When you want to pre-deploy a client certificate to an endpoint for certificate-based authentication, you can copy the certificate to the endpoint and import it for use by the GlobalProtect app. Use the globalprotect import-certificate --location <location> command to import the certificate on the endpoint. When prompted you must supply the certificate password.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  import-certificate --location /home/mydir/Downloads/cert_client_cert.p12 
  Please input passcode:
  Import certificate is successful. 
  

• Connect to a gateway.
  1. (Optional) Display the manual gateways to which you can connect using the globalprotect show --manual-gateways command.
  2. Connect to a gateway using the globalprotect connect --gateway <gp-gateway> command where <gp-gateway> is the IP address or FQDN of the GlobalProtect gateway.
  3. View details about your connection using the globalprotect show --details command.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect show --manual-gateways
  Name                Address                                            
  ------------------------------
  gw1                 192.168.1.180
  gw2                 192.168.1.181
  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect connect --gateway 192.168.1.180

• Verify the status of and view details about your connection.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect show --status
  GlobalProtect status: Connected
  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect show --details           
  Assigned IP address: 192.168.1.132                                      
  Gateway IP address: 192.168.1.180
  Protocol: IPSec
  Uptime(sec): 231

• Rediscover the network.
  Use the globalprotect rediscover-network command to disconnect and reconnect from GlobalProtect.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  rediscover-network

  GlobalProtect status: Connected
  

• Clear the credentials for the current user.
  Use the globalprotect remove-user command to clear the credentials used to authenticate with the portal and gateways. After you confirm that the GlobalProtect app should clear your credentials, the GlobalProtect app disconnects the tunnel and then requires you to enter your credentials the next time you connect.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  remove-user
  Credential will be cleared and current tunnel will be terminated. 
  Do you want to continue(y/n)?y
  Clear is done successfully.                                            
  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect connect --portal 192.168.1.179
  Retrieving configuration...

• Resubmit host information to the gateway.
  Use the globalprotect show --host-state command the current host information about your endpoint and the globalprotect resubmit-hip command to resubmit information about the endpoint to the gateway. This is useful in cases where HIP-based security policy prevents users from accessing resources because it allows the user to fix the compliance issue on the endpoint and then resubmit the HIP.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  show --host-state

• View any GlobalProtect notifications.
  Use the globalprotect show --notification command to view notifications.
• View the Welcome page.
  Use the globalprotect show --welcome-page command. The GlobalProtect app displays the Welcome page in a browser if a Welcome page exists or displays a notification if the Welcome page does not exist.
• View errors.
  Use the globalprotect show --error command to view errors reported by the app.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  show --error
  Error: Cannot connect to GlobalProtect Portal 

• Collect logs.
  The app stores the PanGPA and PanGPI log files in the /home/<user>/.Globalprotect directory. Use the globalprotect collect-logs command to enable the GlobalProtect app for Linux to package these logs and other useful information. You can then use the logs to troubleshoot issues or forward them to a Support engineer for expert analysis.

  user@linuxhost:~$ globalprotect
  collect-log
  Start collecting...
  collecting network info...
  collecting machine info...

  The support file is saved to /home/user/.GlobalProtect/Collect.tgz
