Host App Updates on the Portal

On the firewall hosting the GlobalProtect portal, check for new app software images.
Select
Device
GlobalProtect Client
to view the list of available app software images.
If the firewall has access to the Update Server, click
Check Now
for the latest updates. If the value in the
Action
column is
Download
, it indicates that a new version of the app is available.
If the firewall does not have access to the Update Server, you must manually download the software image from the Palo Alto Networks Software Updates support site, as described in step 2.
Download the app software image.
If the firewall has access to the Update Server, locate the app version you want, and then click
Download
. When the download completes, the value in the
Action
column changes to
Activate
.
If the firewall does not have access to the Update Server, Download the GlobalProtect App Software Package for Hosting on the Portal. After you download the software image, go back to the
Device
GlobalProtect Client
page of the firewall to
Upload
it.
Activate the app software image so that end users can download it from the portal.
Only one version of the app software image can be activated at a time. If you activate a new version, but have some apps that require a previously activated version, you must activate the required version again to enable it for download.
If the software image was automatically downloaded from the Update Server, click
Activate
.
If you manually uploaded the software image to the firewall, click
Activate From File
, and then select the
GlobalProtect Client File
you uploaded from the drop-down. Click
OK
to activate the selected image. You may need to refresh the page before the version displays as
Currently Activated
.
