Sap Logon 730 Software 12
Elcira Acfalle
I have one portal and 3 Gateways. I set up a preferred gateway at HIGHEST based on an active directory group so users connect to their home office. When using Pre-logon since the user is a shared account the connection on a reboot seems to always find the closest gateway. This is OK but when my users log in they stay on that gateway until we refresh the connection. After the manual refresh, the preferred gateway is found and if the user logs off they are still using preferred up until a reboot. The only way I can think to fix this is to have a new portal for each site that sets a preferred gateway for pre-logon. Any thoughts or suggestions?
I experienced the same issue. This post was helpful thank you for sharing. One other issue I am running into that I configured my Portal and Gateway with different Public IP addresses in the same subnet on the same LAG, the switch between pre-login and the named tunnels takes up to two minutes, it does work and but takes too long. If I change the config so that that external Portal and Gateway are on the same IP the change is very quick. This happens both for Log off and logon. The users notice is at logon because until the tunnel rename they are subject to pre-logon policy.
This setting controls how GlobalProtect handles the pre-logon tunnel that connects an endpoint to the gateway.
A value of -1 means the pre-logon tunnel does not time out after a user logs on to the endpoint; GlobalProtect renames the tunnel to reassign it to the user. However, the tunnel persists even if the renaming fails or if the user does not log in to the GlobalProtect gateway.
A value of 0 means when the user logs on to the endpoint, GlobalProtect immediately terminates the pre-logon tunnel instead of renaming it. In this case, GlobalProtect initiates a new tunnel for the user instead of allowing the user to connect over the pre-logon tunnel. Typically, this setting is most useful when you set the Connect Method to Pre-logon then On-demand, which forces the user to manually initiate the connection after the initial logon.
In computing, a logon is a procedure that enables an entity to access a secure system such as an operating system, application, service, website or other resource. The entity is typically an end user, although it can also be another system, such as a computer, service or application. For example, a logon process is usually carried out when an application accesses a database. In such cases, the logon operation occurs behind the scenes, without user intervention beyond the initial setup.
The system that users sign in to is often on a local device such as a desktop or smartphone. For example, users commonly log on to their PCs after rebooting them or when opening secure applications that require additional authentication, such as a password management utility. The target system might also be a networked resource, such as a file share on a local area network or a cloud service accessed via the internet. In such scenarios, a user might participate in one or more logon events when establishing a connection, although some of those events will be hidden from the user.
Traditionally, the logon process requires a user to enter an ID and password into an interface when signing in to a secure system. Each system has its own credential requirements. For example, a system might require that the user ID is in the form of an email address, or that it is made up of only alphanumeric characters and conforms to a minimum and maximum length.
The ID and password method is not the only approach to system logon. Many devices now include biometric features that make it possible to scan a user's physical characteristics -- known as biometric authentication -- as part of the logon process, rather than requiring an ID and password. For example, a laptop or tablet might scan a user's fingerprint or facial features, and then compare those with the digital characteristics on file. If there's a match, the logon process can proceed.
Another alternative is the smart card, which can also initiate a logon without requiring an ID and password. In this case, the user inserts a smart card into a reader connected to the device. The user will then be able to access specific resources on the device, on the network or both, depending on the type of smart card support available to that device and how the service has been configured.
The term logon is often used interchangeably with the term login, even though many sources distinguish between the two -- or at least show preference for one over the other. There is no industry consensus or standard on either term's usage, and much of it comes down to the preference of individual communities, vendors or people. This has resulted in a mishmash of approaches to sign-in terminology, leading to a fair amount of inconsistency and, at times, confusion.
Microsoft and others in the Windows community have tended to favor the term logon, particularly as it applies to the authentication and authorization mechanisms that govern both local and network access. Microsoft has also been steadily moving toward the terms sign in and sign out when referring to session-level access of any kind. However, the term login also pops up in some Microsoft products. For example, SQL Server includes a type of security principal called the login, which has a very specific meaning within the context of that product.
The Unix world, which includes Unix-like operating systems such as Linux, macOS, iOS and Android, has tended to favor the term login, with most of the official documentation sticking along these lines. Outside of these more controlled spheres, however, applications, websites, online services and the population at large tend to use the terms logon and login -- along with such terms as sign-in or sign-on -- without any apparent uniformity or agreement across the technical landscape.
Another source of confusion surrounds the use of logon for different parts of speech. In this area, too, usage is inconsistent. However, the guidelines are fairly straightforward. When used as a noun or adjective, the term should be one word, as in "the user logon" or "the logon procedure." When used as a verb, the term should be two words, as in "you must log on" or "the user is still logged on." The term login follows the same guidelines. It is treated as one word when used as a noun or adjective, and two words when used as a verb.
You can use logon triggers to audit and control server sessions, such as by tracking login activity, restricting logins to SQL Server, or limiting the number of sessions for a specific login. For example, in the following code, the logon trigger denies log in attempts to SQL Server initiated by login login_test if there are already three user sessions created by that login.
Note that the LOGON event corresponds to the AUDIT_LOGIN SQL Trace event, which can be used in Event Notifications. The primary difference between triggers and event notifications is that triggers are raised synchronously with events, whereas event notifications are asynchronous. This means, for example, that if you want to stop a session from being established, you must use a logon trigger. An event notification on an AUDIT_LOGIN event cannot be used for this purpose.
Before SQL Server fires a logon trigger, SQL Server creates an implicit transaction that is independent from any user transaction. Therefore, when the first logon trigger starts firing, the transaction count is 1. After all the logon triggers finish executing, the transaction commits. As with other types of triggers, SQL Server returns an error if a logon trigger finishes execution with a transaction count of 0. The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION statement resets the transaction count to 0, even if the statement is issued inside a nested transaction. COMMIT TRANSACTION might decrement the transaction count to 0. Therefore, we advise against issuing COMMIT TRANSACTION statements inside logon triggers.
A logon trigger can effectively prevent successful connections to the Database Engine for all users, including members of the sysadmin fixed server role. When a logon trigger is preventing connections, members of the sysadmin fixed server role can connect by using the dedicated administrator connection, or by starting the Database Engine in minimal configuration mode (-f). For more information, see Database Engine Service Startup Options.
The Department of Defense Self-Service Logon (DS Logon) is a secure, self-service logon ID that allows individuals to access several websites using a single usernameand password. DS Logon is available to DoD and VA Service Members and Patients (Active Duty, Guard/Reservists, Retirees), Veterans, Spouses, Eligible Family Members (18and over), and Civilian Retirees.
The VA Logon is a component of Identity and Access Management (IAM) Services. The logon account will allow electronic user registration, credential issuance and authentication for users that are not in the Defense Eligibility Enrollment Reporting System (DEERS).
A logon account is a way for you to interact with VA websites online. It gives you the ability to identify yourself to the VA via your User ID and password. It permits you to access a wide range of VA online services.
Your logon account consists of a User ID, a password and your customer profile which contains information about you that will permit VA applications to identify if you have the correct permissions to view the website you attempted to access.
Hi Niels, I followed your example of logon-user.js, but I'm stuck with the error message: 'Access policy evaluation is already in progress for your current session.' Can you help me as I can't find a solution? Thanks, Fred.
