4 Technical Concept

4.1 General overview

The main goal of the WatchGuard Firebox is to perform authentication to secure all

kind of firewall connections. As the WatchGuard Firebox can do authentication to an

external service with RADIUS, we will place the VACMAN Middleware as middleware or

as back-end service, to secure the authentication with our proven VACMAN Middleware

software.

We will also show you how to setup a group authentication based on Active Directory

security groups, in combination with Microsoft Internet Authentication Service (IAS).

4.2 WatchGuard Firebox prerequisites

Please make sure you have a working setup of the WatchGuard Firebox. It is very

important this is working correctly before you start implementing the authentication to

the VM.

Any WatchGuard Firebox X Core or Peak with Fireware 8.3 or Fireware Pro 8.3 will be

supported by this integration guide.

We used for our tests a Firebox X8000 Peak running Fireware Pro 8.3.

4.3 VACMAN Middleware Prerequisites

In this guide we assume you already have VACMAN Middleware 3.0 (VM) installed and

working. If this is not the case, make sure you get VM working before installing any

other features.
