I am also intrested in this. I can see logs with "unauthusersource="kerberos" and I can see users in the logs as unauthuser that contains username that is disabled and not belongs to any user group.

Where this unauthuser value comes from?

The log entries are addressing the user login and login source from the device detection/identification feature (enabled at the interface).

 

- The logs of uthusersource="kerberos" is collected from traffic kerberos on the authentication process between a PC and AD.

- When FG has enabled Device detection on interfaces, the FG will inspect the PC authentication process against the AD (Kerberos traffic) and will record the username.

 

- Topology in LAB,

 

PC (192.168.79.1) -> Foritgate -> AD (192.168.78.1)
