Hello Tutek,

 

Have you added the AD groups in a user group(s)? The user groups should then be visible in firewall policies.

Hi, I created local groups and assign this group to remote NPS server the same name group.

You can't mix local and LDAP users in the same group. Create new user group and put there as member the LDAP object you created, then use this group in src in rules.

I did like that:

 

because I would SSL VPN authenticate users that are in NPS VPN-Admins group

as you can see regarding this KB:

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.2.0/cookbook/795593/use-active-directory-objects-dire...

is possible to choose AD groups in firewall policy.

When I create firewall policy in users then select entry-->User here I don't have listed my AD groups, why?

Hello Tutek, The doc is about fsso. Not LDAP. Although you may see it as LDAP groups which in fact these are,

they belong to different table in FortiGate > adgrp. This is used for passive authentication > Fortinet Single Sign On.

Since you added LDAP groups, as you wrote in your initial post, you have chosen active authentication > meaning users will be prompted for their credentials.

What is your goal exactly?

I would have ability choose my pooled AD group directly in firewall policy, as shown here 

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.2.0/cookbook/795593/use-active-directory-objects-dire...

I have configured agentleess pooling to my domain controller, and checked two AD group to pool, but when create firewall policy when i click source then Select Entry "User", but I don't see here any of my AD groups.

Hello Tutek,

2. What is the source interface in the policy

3. what is the output of: sh us adgrp
