Description

 

This article describes the behavior of FortiNAC when a user is disabled from Active Directory.

 

Scope

 

FortiNAC.

 

Solution

 

If the LDAP entry is configured with the default values, when a user account is disabled in Active Directory, FortiNAC will:

  • Disable the User Account.
  • Disable the Hosts and all the adapters that are registered by this User.

Note: The changes are applied after the next scheduled or manual Directory synchronization.

 

These actions are also recorded in the Events log:

The status of the User, Host, and Adapters appear as shown below:

There are specific cases when disabling the host is not required or may cause access disruption for existing hosts. In this case, the LDAP configuration can be changed by removing the Disabled Attribute [userAccountControl] completely or only the Disabled Value [0x02] as shown below:
