This week, I would like to highlight a discussion where community member @IMTechSupport asked about the pros and cons of having a Windows-based user-ID agent versus an agentless (PAN-OS integrated) user-ID.
@BPry and @TomYoung immediately jumped to the rescue providing some pros and cons of each solution and adding some use-case examples on why they prefer one solution above the other.
Here are some pros, cons and considerations to make while choosing between agent or agentless UID:
Can you think of other considerations or pros/cons that I haven't mentioned? Please share them in the comments section below or go check out the original post and join the discussion: Windows-Based Agent vs Integrated PAN-OS Agent.
You install the user-ID agent on a domain server that is running a supported operating system (OS) and then connect the user-ID agent to exchange or directory servers. Make sure you check our compatibility matrix to confirm where you can install the agent, which servers the agent can monitor and where you can install the user-ID credential service.
I would also like to take the time and highlight our user-ID technology page on LIVEcommunity, your one-stop shop for all documentation, videos, discussions, and more related to Palo Alto Networks' User-ID feature.
