@BPry Thanks for the reply. I understand and agree with your point that not all firewalls need the user-id information, Having say that, i wish to know the specifics how to disseminate info of AD grouping among firewalls, rather having them to query AD individually, can this be done? large group of users are remote VPN users (prisma mobile), i get their user-id-ip-mapping via my VM firewall querying prisma as Userid agent, this same VM is querying AD for users grouping. Others local network in-office users are connected to internal gateways, and the same VM firewall is querying these gateways to get the mapping. Other firewalls globally include sites server DMZs, and major datacenter firewalls already had it set to VM firewall as userid agent to get user-id mapping info.. From the traffic log, i do able to see users are identified correctly.. Right now, what we need is to simplify firewall rules in all these regions/areas into AD grouping rules instead of IP based or specific username based. I am trying to find alternative against having all these firewalls querying AD just to make configuration more standardize, example having all firewalls using same template that points to same userid agent to get user info
