Hi Hesham

As per my knowledge it is not intended to close the connection as long as your OS session is up.

You may need to use a your custom script to close the VPN connection on screen lock.

Hello AEK ,

Thanks for your reply and is really appreciated.

But is there KB or article confirm this.

i dont think such a KB or document exists, but usually people are the exact opposite and try to have or want to have the VPN connection UP while on screensaver/lockedscreen, switching users isnt even in question not the other way around.
