PAN-OS® 8.1 provides new User-ID™ features: Support for Multiple Username Formats
The Windows-based User-ID™ Agent 8.1 release includes the following new feature.
New User-ID FeatureDescription
Support for Multiple Username Formats
When a user logs on to multiple services with different usernames, User-ID™ sources send these usernames in multiple formats (for example, jane.doe@domain.com, DOMAIN\jdoe, and jdoe). In this case, it can be difficult to uniquely identify the user. To help you identify and consistently enforce policy for these users, you can now configure the firewall to fetch multiple attributes from an LDAP-compliant directory.
