I just played with LDAP/AD integration this week and I don't think it's a
possible pattern: when authenticated through LDAP/AD users are not defined
in the GeoServer UI so you cannot associate them to existing groups.

A workaround could be to use SAML authentication with Keycloak and to
manage the groups inside keycloak, if you cannot manage groups in AD.
