Deploying Pulse Secure VPN with server config information

Wondering if anyone has done this. We used to do this with an MSI packaging product but it caused more headaches than it was worth (installs a second MSI, doesn’t update properly, etc…)

Is anyone deploying Pulse Secure VPN via SCCM with your server config and without using 3rd party apps to package it?

msiexec.exe /i “PulseSecure.x64.msi” CONFIGFILE=“Default.pulsepreconfig” /qn /norestart

I used PSappDeploy since I had to run the “C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Pulse Secure\JamUI\jamCommand.exe” and point to the config file.

yeah? is that all? and then just package the whole folder?

That’s pretty much it. You can also install the Pulse Installer Service which allows future Pulse installs to run without requiring admin credentials. Not essential if you’re managing everything via SCCM but useful if you’re trying to install on connection. You can export the installers from the Pulse Admin console.
