    App Behavior Options

    The following table lists the options that you can configure in the Windows Registry and macOS plist to customize the behavior of the GlobalProtect app.
    Some settings do not have a corresponding portal configuration setting on the web interface and must be configured using the Windows Registry, Msiexec, or macOS plist. These settings are listed in the table as “Not in portal.” They include, but are not limited to, settings such as the following: portal <IPaddress>, prelogon 1, and can-prompt-user-credential.
