Why Your Business Needs Barracuda Firewall Control Center

Firewall Control Center isn't just a management console, it's a complete central administration platform letting your team manage hundreds or thousands of firewalls with the same effort as a single device.

Massive Scale Management: Manage thousands of CloudGen Firewalls, Secure Connectors, and Secure Access Controllers at once, across hardware, virtual, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and hybrid deployments.

Template-Based Policy Deployment: Reusable global objects and templates enforce consistent security, SD-WAN, VPN, and access policies across ranges and clusters, cutting configuration effort at scale.

Revision Control & Rollback: Every configuration change is tracked by the Revision Control System, letting admins view prior versions and instantly roll back changes across one firewall or the entire fleet.

Graphical VPN & Global View: The GTI Editor builds TINA and IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnels visually, while Barracuda Earth displays the live status of every VPN tunnel across the world on a global map.

Built for how modern teams manage distributed firewalls.

Everything your business needs to centrally manage distributed firewalls at enterprise scale, delivered in one platform covering multi-platform management, ranges and clusters hierarchy, template-driven policy, pool licensing, VPN orchestration, and global monitoring.

Multi-Platform Central Management

Barracuda Firewall Control Center simultaneously manages CloudGen Firewalls, Secure Connectors, and Secure Access Controllers across hardware appliances, virtual machines, and public cloud instances running on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. The Control Center itself deploys as a hardware appliance, virtual machine, or cloud instance to fit your infrastructure. It can manage multiple firmware releases simultaneously, letting you roll out upgrades gradually without a big-bang upgrade.

Ranges, Clusters & Hierarchy

Managed firewalls are organized into a hierarchy of ranges and clusters, with individual firewalls at the lowest level, making it easy to apply policy across geographic regions, business units, or functional groups. Range-wide and cluster-wide configuration settings cascade to every firewall within the group, while still allowing per-device overrides when needed. The configuration tree visualization gives admins a clear logical view of the entire managed fleet, streamlining large deployments.

Template-Driven Policy

Template-driven objects and reusable global objects let administrators build policy once and apply it across hundreds or thousands of firewalls instantly, without copying rules between devices or environments. Configuration changes made on the Control Center are automatically pushed to managed firewalls when activated, with bulk enable/disable controls letting admins stage rollouts to specific subsets. User-definable work views and freely configurable permission schemes control multi-admin access.

VPN Orchestration & Pool Licensing

The GTI Editor provides a graphical interface for creating and managing site-to-site TINA and IPsec VPN tunnels across the global network, visualizing connections in Barracuda Earth’s worldwide map view of live tunnel status. Pool licensing through the Control Center lets you assign and reassign licenses to firewalls without binding to MAC addresses or serial numbers, making cold-spare deployments and cloud elasticity simple. License activation for new firewalls completes on deployment.

Unified Monitoring & Audit

The CC Statistics Collector, CC Syslog service, and CC FW Audit Log service aggregate operational data, log streams, and audit events from every managed firewall into the Control Center for unified reporting and correlation. The Status Map continuously monitors the health of every managed unit and displays live status at a glance, while Control Center Eventing forwards critical events to response teams. Revision Control System tracks every configuration change with full rollback.
