3467240 - SSO login not working in AS Java - Authorization header received is not SPNEGO token

Symptom

The NetWeaver AS Java is configured for Kerberos Authentication. Kerberos authentication fails for some or all clients due to the browser sending a NTLM token and not a SPNego token which is required for successful authentication

After collecting Authentication trace as per SAP Note 1045019 example 3, resulted trace shows:
