Hi guys, while working on setting up user-id, I got this 'Error: Domain's DNS name is missing in Active Directory Authentication' while trying to commit.
I found this instruction:
Using the Web GUI:
1. Navigate to Device ➔ User Identification ➔ User Mapping.
2. Click the Gear Icon next to Palo Alto Networks User-ID Agent Setup.
3. Click on the Server Monitor Account tab.
4. Locate the Domain's DNS Name field.
5. Enter your Active Directory FQDN (for example: ://yourdomain.com).
6. Click OK and Commit your changes
At #5, what is the Active Directory FQDN that I should put in the Domain's DNS Name field? Thanks.
