Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Verify that the SSL/TLS certificate assigned to the GlobalProtect Portal configuration is valid, not expired, and trusted by the client devices.

    Why this is correct

    If the portal certificate is self-signed or untrusted by client machines, GlobalProtect clients will reject the connection immediately.

  • Check the IPsec crypto profile under Network > Network Profiles > IPsec Crypto.

    Why it's wrong here

    GlobalProtect portal connections use HTTPS (SSL/TLS), not IPsec encryption profiles.

  • Check the User-ID agent connection timeout settings.

    Why it's wrong here

    User-ID timeouts do not cause GlobalProtect Portal SSL certificate trust warnings.

  • Verify the BGP AS number on the Remote Network node.

    Why it's wrong here

    BGP is used for site-to-site remote networks, not mobile user portal SSL/TLS handshakes.
