Is it possible to establish a VPN before the user login to the Endpoint Client.
Yes, you have to enable Machine Authentication in the Gateway object of the Smart Console. This method allows authentication using a machine certificate, which can occur before the user logs in to the system. This ensures that the VPN connection can be established prior to user login, providing necessary network access for the login process itself.
