VM sending internet requests using its IP address, instead of AD account logged on

Hello, one of our Master VMs, all of the sudden, started to send internet requests, using its IP address, instead of the AD account logged on.  The firewall, has a policy to allow/block internet access depending on the AD account.  Because of this, the firewall is blocking these requests because it does not recognize the IP address as an AD account.

Sometimes, making a change on the registry will make the internet connectivity work, for some time, until the VM starts doing it again.  Same when I run IPConfig /release and IPConfig /renew.

Access to internal resources works fine.  It is access to internet resources, like to run MS Updates or AntiVirus updates, what are being affected.

We run a Horizon 7.12 VDI environment, using VMware 7.  The master VM runs WIndows 10 v2004.  We also added the registry settings for DisablePassivePolling=0 and NoActiveProbe=0, under HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetworkConnectivityStatusIndicator.  Internet adapter shows "connected to the internet", and is a VMXNET3.

Has anyone run into a similar issue?

Thanks
