squid_ldap_group can make Squid aware of the LDAP fields.

Depends on how your filter is implemented.

If using Squid ACLs then the group information plugs in as acls using
squid_ldap_group.

If using an urlrewriter/redirector such as SquidGuard then the
urlrewriter/redirector needs to look up the group memberships as part of
it's own acl processing.
