Hi,

Does anyone tried to run globalprotect while connected to FortiSASE? Is it possible to run 2 VPN connections on windows simultaneously?

Yes, you can run GlobalProtect when connected to FortiSASE. However, using two VPN connections on Windows at the same time can lead to routing conflicts and other problems. It is best to use only one active VPN connection at a time to avoid potential conflicts and ensure proper network operation. If you need to use both VPN connections, it is recommended to configure them so that they operate at different network levels or use different network interfaces.

I understand, thanks. However, do you have any procedure or sample how to achieve it?

Hi, just to give you an update. We already resolved this using split tunneling. Global protect and FortiSASE can now work simultaneously, but we are encountering some issues regarding on DNS. We do the Split DNS ruling but still not resolved the issue. Is there any work around?

Also, when we connect global protect vpn first before FortiSASE, SIA is not working. But if we connect FortiSASE first, everything works fine.
