To centralize management across many different firewalls and remote access
users, the Barracuda NG Control Center enables administrators to manage and
configure security, content, traffic management, and network access policies
from a single interface. Template-based configuration and globally available
security objects enable efficient configuration across thousands of locations. The
Barracuda NG Control Center helps significantly reduce the cost associated with
security management while providing extra functionality both centrally and locally
at the managed gateway. Software patches and version upgrades are centrally
controlled from within the management console and deployment can be applied
to all managed devices. Highly customizable administrative roles can be defined to
delegate administrative capabilities for specific departments or locations.
The Barracuda NG Control Center is offered at three levels - Standard Edition,
Enterprise Edition, and Global Edition. All Barracuda NG Control Center levels
enable administration of an unlimited number of Barracuda NG Firewall platforms.
The Standard Edition allows for a single configuration group. The Enterprise Edition
allows for an unlimited number of configuration groups for a single enterprise /
tenant or “range.” The Global Edition is designed for service providers who service
multiple tenants and allows for separate and secluded configuration trees for each
tenant.
Barracuda NG Earth is a graphical real-time 3D
network monitoring utility that provides a status
overview of all VPN site-to-site tunnels.
