ZIA/ZPA: Authentication
Zscaler Client Connector Authentication - Troubleshoot Client Connector Authentication Error
Scenario/ Expected Result: User is prompted to Authenticate.

Problem: Authentication error is returned. Restarting the service and trying to reauthenticate fails.

Tips for avoiding this issue: Educate users to be aware that this can occur if something changes the device fingerprint, and is part of the security. Logging out and re-enrolling should validate a changed device fingerprint that might prompt this error.

Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause


Check Client Connector Authentication Examine log file: ERR zpn_client_authenticate error: Zscaler Client Connector collects device information and sends it
Error Log Entry C:\ProgramData\Zscaler\ZSATunn BRK_MT_AUTH_SAML_FINGER_PRINT_FAIL to Zscaler which enables fingerprinting of the device for security
el_<date>.log for ERROR entries. and reporting purposes. The fingerprint contains key unique data
from the device, to prevent any possibility of cloning the machine
for unauthorized access. Any update in the user's device
attributes triggers Zscaler to re-enforce authentication for that
user.

Zscaler Client Connector Authentication - Troubleshoot User Credential Inconsistency Error (42000)
Scenario/ Expected Result: User fills in valid authentication credentials and expects to be enrolled into Zscaler.

Problem: [42000] error message is displayed: Inconsistency in user credentials is detected.

Tips for avoiding this issue: Ensure that all of the needed user domains are provisioned on the Zscaler tenant.

Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause


Diagnose Credential Usage Change Help article: Authentication error codes and error messages are
Zscaler Client Connector: ZPA documented on the help portal. In this example
Authentication Errors the possible resolutions are:
● check the username initially used and
verify that the same is being used for
re-enrollment.
● verify the IdP SAML response.
● have the user logout and retry.

Test Client Connector Re-enroll User logs out with the Log Out button on Since authentication is a sequence of multiple
the Client Connector. steps be sure to start from a fully logged out device
when troubleshooting. Carefully check the
credentials entered at each step of the enrollment
to make sure they are for an authorized user on a
valid domain.

ZIA: Authentication
Zscaler Client Connector Authentication - Troubleshoot Authentication Internal Error
Scenario/ Expected Result: User attempts to authenticate with Client Connector using valid credentials.

Problem: Authentication fails and displays a message saying "An internal error occurred".

Tips for avoiding this issue: Verify that the domains provisioned on the ZIA tenant cover all of the domains of the credentials that the users have been instructed to use to enroll into Zscaler services.
Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause
Diagnose Incorrect User Auth Domain Issue Check the provisioned domain on the ZIA Tenant. Some possible scenarios:

Troubleshooting Guide 3
ZIA: Authentication
Zscaler Client Connector Authentication - Troubleshoot Authentication Server Connection Error
Scenario/ Expected Result: User fills in valid authentication credentials and expects to be enrolled into Zscaler.

Problem: Secure Connection Failed message is displayed

Tips for avoiding this issue: Ensure that all authentication traffic goes direct to the Identity Provider destination URL. This should not be an issue for users who are off the trusted network and will
have traffic forwarded with the Client Connector, but check for any other forwarding that may send the authentication traffic to Zscaler (e.g. PAC file or GRE/IPSec tunnel) instead of directly to the IdP.
Make sure that the authentication traffic is not being intercepted for inspection by Zscaler.

Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause


Adjust Auth Server URL SSL Exemption Create a custom URL category and add the IdP host Traffic for IdP URLs in the custom URL category
domain: (SSL Bypass in this example) will bypass
https://admin.<cloud>.net/#administration inspection, allowing the traffic to go direct and
/url-categories unchanged to the IdP.

Create an SSL rule to bypass inspection on the custom URL

4 Troubleshooting Guide
Verify Authentication Server Exemptions https://admin.zscloud.net/#administration Authentication traffic exemptions are needed to
/advanced-network-settings prevent authentication loops. In this example with
no exempted URL Categories, URLs, or Applications
it is very likely that authentication will be
interfered with and fail.

Adjust Auth Server URL PAC File Direct https://admin.<cloud>.net/#administration In this example Okta is being used as the IdP. Rules
Entry /hosted-pac in the PAC file are directing all web traffic to
Zscaler, so this bypass is needed for the Okta IdP
hosts.

Troubleshooting Guide 5
ZIA: Authentication
Zscaler Client Connector Authentication - Troubleshoot No Authentication Policy Enforcement Error
Scenario/ Expected Result: User browses to a website from a location where Enforce Authentication is enabled. Logs should show them as the user on the
transaction.

Problem: Authentication is not being enforced. Transaction logs show a generic looking username for an unauthenticated user.

Tips for avoiding this issue: Ensure that ZIA is configured to require authentication for all traffic. Get all users to use Client Connector (users must authenticate before forwarding traffic). Also ensure that an SSL inspection policy is in place that covers the URL.

Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause


Check SSL Inspection For Authentication https://admin.<cloud>.net/#insight Web Insights log entries in this example show a real
Required Destination s/web user name indicating that they were authenticated.
SSL Policy Reason shows that the traffic is being
SSL inspected.For an entry showing an
unauthenticated user check the SSL Inspected
and SSL Policy Reason fields for indications of it
not being inspected because of SSL policies.
Check IP Surrogate Setting https://admin.<cloud>.net/#adminis For tunneled traffic from a location there may be
tration/locations traffic that could be identified for the user that is
being missed. Enable IP Surrogate to help add
some context that may be helpful to identify the
user.

ZIA: Traffic Forwarding
Zscaler Client Connector Traffic Forwarding - Troubleshoot Client Connector Endpoint Firewall/ Antivirus Error
Scenario/ Expected Result: Service Status ON in Zscaler Client Connector Connectivity

Problem: Zscaler Client Connector shows Endpoint FW/AV Error.

Zscaler sends TCP/UDP probes on the default NIC on IP addresses 100.64.0.6 and 100.64.0.8 on TCP and UDP port 80 to check for Firewall(FW) or Antivirus(AV) blocks.

If the probe fails, Client Connector concludes this as an interruption from FW/AV application in the host machine and notifies it as Endpoint FW/AV error on Client
Connector.

Tips for avoiding this issue:


● Check with the Desktop management team on the expected profile for the target devices in terms of VPN, firewall, antivirus, and endpoint protection agent configurations. See Zscaler Client Connector Help - Interoperability

ZIA: Traffic Forwarding
Troubleshoot Internet Traffic Forwarding - Check ZIA Public Service Edge Routing
Scenario/ Expected Result: Internet traffic should be routed to the closest Zscaler data center.

Problem: Traffic is routed to a node that is geographically distant from the user's location. User asks "Why do I get sent to LAX1 when I'm in Atlanta?".

Tips for avoiding this issue: Recognize that traffic routing can be very dynamic and is influenced potentially by many factors. Stay aware of outages or issues that are prompting temporary changes
to keep services working. Be able to quantify if the routing has any measurable impact on the user's experience. Check the user's DNS settings as well since users may configure something like 8.8.8.8 which is based in California and could incorrectly influence
traffic routing.

Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause


Check GeoIP Coordinates https://ip.zscaler.com/ Cross-reference the maxmind coordinates of egress
http://www.maxmind.com IP against the MaxMind Database. If MaxMind has
incorrect coordinates, you can submit a GeoIP data
correction request with MaxMind. Alternatively,
You can open a case with Zscaler Support to
override MaxMind coordinates to route to the
closest Zscaler Primary DC.

Check Zscaler Data Center Health https://trust.zscaler.com/cloud-status This example was for a two hour period in a
Montreal DC. If users noticed issues it might have
already failed over to the secondary, so by the time
they checked they might have seen their traffic
going to a distant data center. They might conclude
(incorrectly) that this was the cause of any issues
they were seeing. History from the Trust site helps
to fill in the context for what they may have
experienced.

Check Service Edge Connection Timeout https://admin.<cloud>.net/#administration/ho return "PROXY ${GATEWAY}:9490; PROXY In this example there is a typo in the primary
sted-pac ${SECONDARY_GATEWAY}:9400; DIRECT"; gateway port (9490 instead of 9400). This would
cause a poor user experience while the connection
times out and then fails over to the secondary.
Check Service Edge Subcloud https://help.zscaler.com/zia/what-subcloud ${GATEWAY.Europe.zscaler.net} and In this example users are restricted by the PAC file
${SECONDARY.GATEWAY.Europe.zscaler.net} to Service Edges in a specific set of nodes in a
https://admin.<cloud>.net/#administration/ho subcloud called Europe. If the subcloud does not
sted-pac include nodes close to the user's location it may
cause issues.

ZIA: Policy
Troubleshoot Internet Application Access - Check Inspection Policy Bypass/ Failure
Scenario/ Expected Result: Access to a specific URL is expected to be controlled by a policy that defines what the user may or may not access.

Problem: A user is either allowed to access a website they should not be able to access, or they are restricted from accessing a site they should be able to access.

Tips for avoiding this issue: Configure the SSL inspection policies to inspect as much of the traffic as possible, since any traffic that bypasses SSL inspection could also potentially be missed by other types of rules that need the context about the user or the
transaction that are encrypted. Keep policies as simple and as specific as possible, and try to minimize the use of bypasses and exceptions. Always check the Web Insights log entry for a transaction to get insight into all of the factors that may be affecting access.

Troubleshooting Activity/ Symptom Tools Sample Output Analysis/ Cause


Check CDN URLs in HTTP Header Trace In Chrome: In this example the network view of the HTTP
View > Developer > Developers Tools - Network Tools transactions shown in the developer tools view
shows that the shopping site (primarche.ca) uses
cdn.shopify.com to deliver site content.

There could be issues with access controls for


primarche.ca if they are bypassed or overridden by
other rules that govern the delivery of
cdn.shopify.com.

Check SSL Inspection Bypass https://admin.<cloud>.net/#policy/web/ssl Any traffic hitting this rule will not be SSL
-inspection inspected. Ensure that there are other rules higher
in the list that will ensure that inspection is done
for all traffic that should not be explicitly excluded
from inspection.

If an expected policy is not being enforced on some


traffic it could be that URL categorization or Cloud
App identification end up being too general to
match the criteria in a URL Filtering or Cloud App
control rule. Always check the Web Insights log
entries for the traffic to see if it is being SSL
inspected or not.

Check URL Inspection Bypass https://admin.<cloud>.net/#administration Traffic for any safemarch.com URL would match
/url-categories this URL category. Typically this might be done to
include this category in a URL Filtering Allowlist
type rule that permits traffic to these destinations.
All traffic to safemarch.com would match this URL
category and any corresponding URL Filtering rule
using the category in its criteria.

16 Troubleshooting Guide
Always check for custom URL categories and the
URLs and wildcards defined to be aware of traffic
that may be included in a rule that bypasses the
required policy.

Check Cloud App Inspection Bypass https://admin.<cloud>.net/#policy/web/url Policy exceptions configured here for Office 365,
-and-cloud-app-control Skype, and UCAAS such as Zoom will bypass all
(Advanced Policy Settings tab) inspections. If there was a more granular Cloud
App Control Policy rule in place to block something
specific like OneDrive for a group of users, this
would override that rule and OneDrive access
would be allowed.

Check SSL Bypass List https://admin.<cloud>.net/#policy/web/ssl This SSL inspection rule would bypass inspection
-inspection for any URLs in the User-Defined URL categories.
Be sure to check what is in the user-defined
categories to know what will be bypassed.

Check SSL Wildcard Domains Bypass https://help.zscaler.com/zia/url-format-g .safemarch.com This would match almost anything in
uidelines safemarch.com. For example:
● atlanta.safemarch.com
● serv1.atlanta.safemarch.com/webinars
● app.safemarch.com:10443
A leading period (".") functions as a wildcard to the
left of the named URL. Note that the asterisk ("*")
character is not used as a wildcard.

Check Inspection Bypass List Policy > Malware Protection .shopify.com could have been added to a category
and that is being used in an inspection bypass to work
Policy > Advanced Threat Protection around an access issue for a page on the
shopify.com domain.
(Security Exceptions tabs)
Unfortunately this matches something like
cdn.shopify.com, which could be the content
distribution network for content for many other
sites that use the Shopify platform for delivering
their web apps.

Scenario/ Expected Result: User should be able to connect to a website according to the policies in place.

Problem: Website is unreachable through Zscaler.

Tips for avoiding this issue: Check for overlaps between firewall and URL and Cloud App rules for conflicting blocks. Best practices of keeping the rule sets small and as specific as possible will help to avoid hidden conflicts.

Check Network Access Control List (ACL) https://admin.<cloud>.net/#policy/firewall Even if LinkedIn was permitted by the URL & Cloud

Analyze Internet Access Issue HTTP In Chrome: There is a lot of useful information in the Network
Headers File Capture View > Developer > Developers Tools - view that is helpful for tracking down web access
Network Tools issues. In this example
HTTP 307 - Temporary Redirect and 403 -
Forbidden responses indicate access controls are
being applied.

Timing data also will show where there may be


timeouts or long delays.

Download and save this data in an HTTP Archive


(HAR) file to have a record for further analysis if
needed.

Analyze Internet Access Issue Packet In Wireshark: Wireshark has some tools in the Statistics and
Capture Statistics > HTTP > Requests Analysis menus that can help to isolate
transactions of interest and see related details. In
this example the HTTP Requests summary shows
hosts that are being requested and related details
