    I have been looking for this but haven't been able to find anything solid in the Forums. I have a Controller based network running AOS 6.4.4.8 which is serving an employee network using WPA2 Enterprise with Windows 2012 NPS as the RADIUS server back end authenticating against Active Directory.


    There is also a Barracuda Web Filter inline between the .employee network and the Internet. It is integrated with Active Directory in such a way that they block user access to Social Media networks on the wired network unless the user is in a specific Active Directory group. Does anyone know of a way to pass the Windows group attribute from the Aruba Controller to a Barracuda so that I can do this same sort of thing on the wireless side of the network?

    What does the barracuda use for communication with other devices? RADIUS? API?

    There is a Barracuda DC software agent installed on the Domain Controller whch enables the Web Filter to make calls against AD/LDAP.  I originally thought that this would work for wireless clients as well because, to my thinking at least, once they are on the wireless network they are just a client, but I was apparently wrong.
