Recording User in Logs

Not applicable

This should be an easy one.  Just looking for confirmation.

The only way to get user information in traffic/url/threat logs is to a) use the PAN User Agent to query AD/WMI or b) setup a caputive portal.  Is this correct?

We have a WPA2 wireless network available for students on campus.  They authenticate via 802.1x to a RADIUS server to access it.  They use personal computers.  If I wanted to get user data here, I'd have to setup a captive portal?

Thanks!

You will need to be using either the Pan-Agent or the TS_agent as applicable. Have your Zone setup to enable User Identification on the zone/zones you will want to monitor this way and then your logs will reflect user based traffic.

Hello

Yes Captive Portal is probably the way forward. The Palo Alto agents (AD/LDAP/TS) require, one-way-or-another, a domain account, and a login event to that account, which I'm guessing they don't have.

All the best,

Will
