We have 2 user-agents deployed that read the AD logs and the PA7050's connect to the user-agents. The agents are running 6.0.7-10 and the PA7050's running 6.1.4.
We are having a problem where mulitple machines across various networks are using a "generic" login account. We have policies in place on the PA7050's that are enforced on these macihines through user-id. This works fine until an admin logs into one of these machines or runs an application as an admin on the machine. This over-writes the user-id mapping by design. The issue however comes when the admin logs out and then logs back in as the generic account, the user-id mappings are not being updated fast enough or at all it seems, which then leaves that machine to bypass the enforcment policies.
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Thanks
**I have thought of using the ignore-list for the admin login's, however this would be a few 100 names and could change monthly which is not really scable to daily operations.

Hello,
Not sure if its acceptable in your environemnt, but perhaps wmi probing could be used? Just be careful of where you have it enabled:

Or maybe Captive portal, although I must admit I think it would be for all users.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but in the user-agent config,the "Security Log Monitor Fequency (sec.)" setting should take care of this for you.
The login / run-as from the admin, log-off and subsequent login as a normal user should be recorded within this setting. In our enviornment this is set as 3 seconds. So unless I'm not understanding this correctly our enviornment would have this updated in 3 seconds or so, and would also take care of your issue as well.

Global Protect in internal mode or wifi/nac logs are the only options. Anything else is just noise.
