Active Directory Integration - Barracuda Web Filter


Installing the DC Agent on your network will allow the Barracuda Web Filter to associate outgoing web requests with Active Directory users, log their activity, and apply user-specific or group-specific policies to outgoing connections without requiring users to log into the Barracuda Web Filter.

First, you will need to configure the Barracuda Web Filter to work with your Active Directory server on the Users/Groups > Authentication Services or Users/Groups > Authentication page. You will need one authentication service for each Active Directory domain. This page lets you specify the location of your LDAP server so your Barracuda Web Filter can:

  • Authenticate users using LDAP
  • Authenticate user group membership using LDAP
  • Allow you to assign exception policies to LDAP users.

Navigate to the Users/Groups > Authentication Services or Users/Groups > Authentication page, select the LDAP tab, and fill out all of the needed information:

  • LDAP Server - The IP address of your LDAP or Active Directory server.
  • LDAP Port - The port used by your LDAP or Active Directory server. The default is port 389.
  • LDAP Search Base - The base distinguished name (DN) for the directory. For example, if your domain is test.com, your base DN might bedc=test,dc=com.
  • Bind DN - The distinguished name (DN) of a user in your LDAP directory that has read access to all the users in LDAP. The Barracuda Web Filter uses the distinguished name to look up users in the LDAP database so the users can be assigned to exception policies and displayed on the Users/Groups > Accounts View page.
  • Bind Password - The password for the user you specified in the Bind DN field.
  • UID Attribute - The attribute that contains the user's ID. For Active Directory, it is recommended that you use sAMAccountName. For OpenLDAP, it is recommended that you use uid.
