WireGuard Portal lets you hook up any LDAP server such as Active Directory or OpenLDAP for both authentication and user sync. You can even register multiple LDAP servers side-by-side. When someone logs in via LDAP, their specific provider is remembered, so there's no risk of cross-provider conflicts. Details on the log-in process can be found in the Security documentation.

If you enable LDAP synchronization, all users within the LDAP directory will be created automatically in the WireGuard Portal database if they do not exist. If a user is disabled or deleted in LDAP, the user will be disabled in WireGuard Portal as well. The synchronization process can be fine-tuned by multiple parameters, which are described below.

LDAP Synchronization

WireGuard Portal can automatically synchronize users from LDAP to the database. To enable this feature, set the sync_interval property in the LDAP provider configuration to a value greater than "0". The value is a string representing a duration, such as "15m" for 15 minutes or "1h" for 1 hour (check the exact format definition for details). The synchronization process will run in the background and synchronize users from LDAP to the database at the specified interval. Also make sure that the sync_filter property is a well-formed LDAP filter, or synchronization will fail.

Limiting Synchronization to Specific Users

Use the sync_filter property in your LDAP provider block to restrict which users get synchronized. It accepts any valid LDAP search filter, only entries matching that filter will be pulled into the portal's database.

For example, to import only users with a mail attribute:

auth:
  ldap:
    - id: ldap
      # ... other settings
      sync_filter: (mail=*)

Disable Missing Users

If you set the disable_missing property to true, any user that is not found in LDAP during synchronization will be disabled in WireGuard Portal. All peers associated with that user will also be disabled.

If you want a user and its peers to be automatically re-enabled once they are found in LDAP again, set the auto_re_enable property to true. This will only re-enable the user if they where disabled by the synchronization process. Manually disabled users will not be re-enabled.
