users not passing to firepower

systemtek

Hi All,

We are using Configure Cisco Firepower User Agent for Active Directory installed on a domain controller, both sections are green which seems to indicate it should pass the details back to the firepower.

 

I have some rules on the firepower and I have added some users to the rules (it find the users) but as soon as I do this they cant access the specified content.  The rule works if I remove the users.

 

When looking in the logs, there is no reference to the username at all.  

 

As the initial client request contains only the IP I believe that the firepower should then lookup that IP and match the username via the agent on the domain controller.  Is there anyway I can test this ? 

Thanks

Hi,
Create a test rule with the user you want to allow or block as first rule in ACP and try if its working as per the AD-Username. Before testing logoff the machine and login again to get the correct IP details.

Hi

Thanks for the reply, essentially that is what I have done.  I have the correct IP in the logs, but no usernames appear in the logs.  It just shows as BLOCK in logs but no username details as soon as I remove the username from the rule, it works.

 

Thanks 

click the TABLE VIEW of CONNECTION EVENTS to see the detailed view.

Hi,

Thanks, but "Initiator User" shows as "Unknown" 

Thanks 

which version you are running and can you share a screenshot.

Hi,
Are you created an identity policy with passive authentication and bind to ACP right..?
For the user details Check Analysis > Users > User Activity.

Hi

I already checked in Analysis > Users > User Activity and this does not show my test users activity.
