Is anyone experiencing WMI polling failures? We're using user id agent 3.1 with PAN OS 4.1.3 to support Kerberos and leverage our MS AD group based security rules in the PAN, but WMI polling has been incosistent. All appropriate permissions exist, but I've seen the user id wmi poll fail but when I run a WMI poll by hand using a Perl script we wrote it works and identifies the user appropraitely (same machine, same login, everything). I’ve seen polling being initiated from the same system with the same account have inconsistent results: sometimes it fails with a “netbios disabled” error in the log and immediately after it works (via a manual WMI polling perl script we made). Any ideas? As mentioned, the account has necessary permissions (domain admin). I was thinking traffic levels, which would fail the manual probe too though I think, but reaching out and seeing if anyone has ever seen something similar.
