This how-to guide is designed to walk you through a GlobalProtect configuration appropriate for remotely accessing a home network, leveraging both a username/password and machine certificate for secure authentication. If you’ve never set up GlobalProtect, this guide will get you started with a basic configuration that you can tweak to your requirements. You can also securely access resources on your home network, such as a file server.
