NAC Policies
Overview

Overview
"NAC policies" are collections of tests that evaluate remote endpoints attempt-
ing to connect to your network. You can use the standard tests installed with
NAC 800, or you can create your own custom tests.
NOTE: The default NAC policy is indicated by the check mark on the icon to the left
of the NAC policy name. See “Selecting the Default NAC Policy” on page 6-7
for instructions on selecting and charging the default NAC policy.
The NAC policies window (shown in figure 6-1) is where you create NAC
policies and groups, disable NAC policies, delete NAC policies, access specific
NAC policies. Once you access a specific policy, you can perform the following
tasks:
■ Basic settings – Edit NAC policies, assign NAC policies to a group,
enable or disable the NAC policy, select which OSs are not tested, but
allowed access, set retest frequency, and set quarantine times.
■ Domains and endpoints – Assign endpoints and domains to a policy.
■ Tests – Select tests, select test properties, select test failure actions.
