This policy setting defines the list of trusting forests that the Kerberos client searches when attempting to resolve two-part service principal names (SPNs).
- If you enable this policy setting, the Kerberos client searches the forests in this list, if it's unable to resolve a two-part SPN. If a match is found, the Kerberos client requests a referral ticket to the appropriate domain.
- If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, the Kerberos client doesn't search the listed forests to resolve the SPN. If the Kerberos client is unable to resolve the SPN because the name isn't found, NTLM authentication might be used.

This policy setting controls hash or checksum algorithms used by the Kerberos client when performing certificate authentication.
- If you enable this policy, you'll be able to configure one of four states for each algorithm:
- "Default" sets the algorithm to the recommended state.
- "Supported" enables usage of the algorithm. Enabling algorithms that have been disabled by default may reduce your security.
- "Audited" enables usage of the algorithm and reports an event (ID 206) every time it's used. This state is intended to verify that the algorithm isn't being used and can be safely disabled.
- "Not Supported" disables usage of the algorithm. This state is intended for algorithms that are deemed to be insecure.
- If you disable or don't configure this policy, each algorithm will assume the "Default" state.
Events generated by this configuration: 205, 206, 207, 208.

> [!WARNING]
> When a domain doesn't support Kerberos armoring by enabling "Support Dynamic Access Control and Kerberos armoring", then all authentication for all its users will fail from computers with this policy setting enabled.
- If you enable this policy setting, the client computers in the domain enforce the use of Kerberos armoring in only authentication service (AS) and ticket-granting service (TGS) message exchanges with the domain controllers.
> [!NOTE]
> The Kerberos Group Policy "Kerberos client support for claims, compound authentication and Kerberos armoring" must also be enabled to support Kerberos armoring.
- If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, the client computers in the domain enforce the use of Kerberos armoring when possible as supported by the target domain.

This policy setting controls the Kerberos client's behavior in validating the KDC certificate for smart card and system certificate logon.
- If you enable this policy setting, the Kerberos client requires that the KDC's X.509 certificate contains the KDC key purpose object identifier in the Extended Key Usage (EKU) extensions, and that the KDC's X.509 certificate contains a dNSName subjectAltName (SAN) extension that matches the DNS name of the domain. If the computer is joined to a domain, the Kerberos client requires that the KDC's X.509 certificate must be signed by a Certificate Authority (CA) in the NTAuth store. If the computer isn't joined to a domain, the Kerberos client allows the root CA certificate on the smart card to be used in the path validation of the KDC's X.509 certificate.
- If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, the Kerberos client requires only that the KDC certificate contains the Server Authentication purpose object identifier in the EKU extensions which can be issued to any server.

This policy setting allows you to set the value returned to applications which request the maximum size of the SSPI context token buffer size.
The size of the context token buffer determines the maximum size of SSPI context tokens an application expects and allocates. Depending upon authentication request processing and group memberships, the buffer might be smaller than the actual size of the SSPI context token.
- If you enable this policy setting, the Kerberos client or server uses the configured value, or the locally allowed maximum value, whichever is smaller.
- If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, the Kerberos client or server uses the locally configured value or the default value.
> [!NOTE]
> This policy setting configures the existing MaxTokenSize registry value in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Kerberos\Parameters, which was added in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, with a default value of 12,000 bytes. Beginning with Windows 8 the default is 48,000 bytes. Due to HTTP's base64 encoding of authentication context tokens, it isn't advised to set this value more than 48,000 bytes.

Devices joined to Microsoft Entra ID in a hybrid environment need to interact with Active Directory Domain Controllers, but they lack the built-in ability to find a Domain Controller that a domain-joined device has. This can cause failures when such a device needs to resolve a Microsoft Entra UPN into an Active Directory Principal.
This parameter adds a list of domains that a Microsoft Entra joined device should attempt to contact if it's otherwise unable to resolve a UPN to a principal.
