Verify the Mobile Security Manager Configuration
After you finish setting up the Mobile Security Manager (configuring the device check-in interface, enabling
enrollment, and defining configuration and deployment profiles) and setting up the GlobalProtect portal with
the URL for device check-in interface, you should verify that you can successfully enroll a device and that the
Mobile Security Manager profile is successfully installed and enforced.
Verify the Mobile Security Manager Configuration
Step 1 Set up the deployment policies to be
pushed to the test users.
As a best practice, begin by deploying policies to a small group of
users, such as administrators in the IT department responsible for
administering the Mobile Security Manager:
1. Select
Policies > Policies and select the deployment policy to
edit.
2. On the
Users/HIP Profiles tab, click Add in the User/User
Group section and then select the user or group who will be
testing the policy.
3. (Optional) Select the deployment policy rule you just
created/modified and click
Move Up so that it is before any
more generic rules you have created.
4.
Commit the changes.
Step 2 Download and install the GlobalProtect
app and navigate to the GlobalProtect
portal.
1. Download the app:
• From Android devices, download the app from Google Play.
• From iOS devices, download the app from the App Store.
2. Tap the GlobalProtect icon on the Home screen to launch the
app.
3. Tap
OK to enable VPN functionality on the device.
4. On the GlobalProtect Settings screen, enter the
Portal name or
address,
Username, and Password and then tap Connect. The
portal name you enter must be a fully qualified domain name
(FQDN) and it should not include the
https:// at the
beginning.
If Mobile Security Manager has been configured on the portal,
the device will automatically be redirected to the enrollment
screen after successfully authenticating to the portal.
In order to complete the enrollment process the mobile
device must have Internet connectivity.
