Zone Alarms Integrity will integrate AD groups and users if you did not
move them to a different OU. From there you can create policies to
apply to your groups. It also has the application intelligence layer 7
for only a handful of protocols like http, ftp, smtp, impa4, nntp, pop3
Layer 3 settings are located under the firewall option.
