Symptom


  • Non-GP Firewall is connected to User-ID agent containing IP-to-user mappings for domain-joined users.
  • Non-domain users connect to GP Gateway Firewall where IP-to-user mappings are created.
  • GP mappings are not visible on non-GP Firewall that is behind the Gateway Firewall.


Environment


  • Palo Alto Firewalls
  • Supported PAN-OS
  • GlobalProtect (GP) Gateway
  • User-ID Redistribution


Cause


User-ID redistribution needs to be configured.



Resolution


  1. Non-GP Firewall can receive GP mappings from Gateway Firewall using User-ID Redistribution.
  2. Step 4  in the above document shows the Collector settings that need to be configured in Gateway Firewall.
  3. Step 2 shows adding the Gateway Firewall as Redistribution agent on non-GP Firewall to receives the mappings.
