On June 2, 2026, Microsoft released version 2.31.125 of the Entra Global Secure Access (GSA) client. This update introduces several enhancements designed to improve client resiliency, simplify troubleshooting, and provide administrators with better visibility into network connection status.
Changes in v2.31.125
GSA client v2.31.125 includes new features to streamline connectivity troubleshooting.
Network Status
The new GSA client can now distinguish between a complete network disconnection and a scenario where the device remains connected to a local network but lacks internet access. This distinction helps administrators and users more quickly identify the source of connectivity issues and reduce troubleshooting time.
Network Disconnected
No Internet Connectivity
Local Access
When Intelligent Local Access (ILA) is enabled, the client now clearly indicates when a device is connected to a trusted private network. This provides additional visibility into ILA decision-making and helps confirm that local access policies are functioning as expected.
Sign Out
The new GSA client includes an account picker when a user signs out on Entra-registered or Entra-joined devices. This enhancement simplifies account management on shared or multi-user devices by allowing users to switch identities without fully reinstalling or reconfiguring the client.
The sign out option is disabled by default. It must be enabled by setting the following registry key.
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Global Secure Access Client\HideSignOutButton DWORD = 0
User Session Detection
Because the GSA client supports only a single interactive Windows session, this new indicator helps quickly identify unsupported multi-session scenarios that may impact client functionality or troubleshooting efforts.
Other Changes
In addition to the new features and capabilities outlined above, these changes are also included.
- Updated embedded .NET Runtime to version 8.0.26.
- GSA Forwarding Profile Service now automatically restarts after a failure.
- Improved detection and tunneling of agentic network connections.
- Various bug fixes and performance improvements.
Summary
GSA Client v2.31.125 introduces several useful enhancements focused on troubleshooting, resiliency, and user experience. Improved network status visibility, Intelligent Local Access awareness, account sign-out support, and enhanced session detection provide administrators with better diagnostic capabilities while making the client easier for end users to understand and manage. Although this release remains in preview, administrators are encouraged to begin testing this latest release soon.
