Issue

Machine Certificate authentication is used on MAC OS X clients. During the GlobalProtect connection process, the user needs to enter the Local Administrator account credentials to allow access to the System keychain twice.

Cause

When using Machine Certificates with GlobalProtect on Mac OS X Clients, the certificate must be accessed from the 'System' keychain in MAC OS X. This will cause a Keychain Access prompt to appear twice when the client attempts to access the certificate for verification against both portal and gateway.
