Step 9
Type yes to apply changes.
Configuring the Sensor to be a Master Blocking Sensor
Multiple sensors (blocking forwarding sensors) can forward blocking requests to
a specified master blocking sensor (MBS), which controls one or more devices.
The MBS is the NAC running on a sensor that controls blocking on one or more
devices on behalf of one or more other sensors. The NAC on an MBS controls
blocking on devices at the request of the NACs running on other sensors.
On the blocking forwarding sensor, identify which remote host serves as the
MBS; on the MBS you must add the blocking forwarding sensors to its allowed
host configuration.
Note
Typically the MBS is configured to manage the network devices. Blocking
forwarding sensors are not normally configured to manage network devices,
although doing so is permissible.
Caution
Only one sensor should control all blocking interfaces on a device.
