BIG-IP Edge Client in always connect mode doesn't respect network location awareness (NLA) settings.
Edge Client always tries to establish VPN connection, even inside the enterprise network.
Edge Client is configured to be in AlwaysConnected mode. Connectivity profile has Enterprise LAN suffixes configured.
None
Now BIG-IP Edge Client respects network location awareness (NLA) settings from connectivity profile: disconnects VPN when inside enterprise network, establishes VPN when outside of enterprise network. Edge Client has no button in this mode. To achieve that Edge Client should be configured in this way: 1 .'Enable Always connected mode' checked. 2. 'Traffic flow when VPN is disconnected' set to 'Allow only in enterprise LAN'. 3. Connectivity profile should have suffixes configured.
