Define a GlobalProtect VPN Configuration
While the GlobalProtect Mobile Security Manager allows you to push configuration settings that allow access
to your corporate resources and provides a mechanism for enforcing device restrictions, it does not secure the
connection between the mobile device and services it connects to. To enable the client to establish secure tunnel
connections, you must enable VPN support on the device. For simplified GlobalProtect VPN setup on iOS
devices, you can push the GlobalProtect VPN configuration settings to the device in the configuration profile
as described in the following procedure. For general configuration profile information, see Create an iOS
Configuration Profile.
Step 8 Add certificates to push to the mobile
devices. These can either be certificates
that you generated on the Mobile Security
Manager, or certificates that you import
from a different CA. You can push any
certificate the device will need to connect
to your internal applications and services.
1. Select the
Certificates tab and then click Add.
2. Select an existing certificate from the list, or
Import a certificate
generated by a different CA.
3. If the certificate contains a private key, you must also enter the
Password to be used to decrypt the key.
Step 9 Set up an access point name (APN) for
the mobile device to use to present to the
carrier to identify the type of network
connection to supply.
1. Select the
APN tab and then select the APN check box to enable
the service on the managed devices.
2. Enter the
Access Point Name for the packet data network
(PDN) or other service, such as a wireless application protocol
(WAP) server or multimedia messaging service (MMS) to allow
the mobile devices to communicate with.
Step 10 Save the configuration profile. 1. Click
OK to save the configuration settings you defined and
close the iOS Configuration dialog.
2.
Commit your changes.
