  Configuration Settings  33

Additional Configuration Items

In addition to the configuration settings that are entered directly onto the Barracuda SSL VPN, there 
are a few additional steps that may wish to take, to allow easier access and maintenance:

Recommendations:

1.

Register a hostname with your DNS server for the Barracuda SSL VPN; for example: 

sslvpn.company.com

2.

Install an SSL certificate on the Barracuda SSL VPN for this hostname to ensure your users are 
able to determine that they are connecting to a genuine Barracuda SSL VPN that is registered to 
your organization.

3.

Integrate the Barracuda SSL VPN with your existing user database.  To cleanly integrate with 
your environment, the Barracuda can read in user accounts and authenticate against a number of 
different databases, including Microsoft Active Directory.

4.

If your network uses a DMZ, you may wish to configure the Barracuda SSL VPN in this 
topology for greater security.
