Symptom


  • Users do not match portal agent configs, which are configured with "user name" as a selection criteria when multiple group mappings are present.
  • gpsvc debug level logs show that user is being assigned with the empty domain and not matching a client config with user selection criteria as user name:

Environment


  • Prisma Access
  • Group Mapping


Cause


  • Check If override domain is set for all of the group-mapping entries.
  • Same groups can be fetched from different group-mapping entries. This is redundant and will create issues if there are override domains.
  • By default, User Domain is blank: the firewall automatically detects the domain names for Active Directory servers. If you enter a value, it overrides any domain names that the firewall retrieves from the LDAP source.

 


Resolution


  1. Clear override domain from all of the group-mapping entries.
  2. This field affects only the usernames and group names retrieved from the LDAP source.
  3. To override the domain associated with a username for user authentication, configure the User Domain and Username Modifier in the authentication profile assigned to the user (Device > Authentication Profile)
