Installing the AV-Client
The AV-Client is a proprietary Windows-based application that is installed on client end stations. The
installation instructions are provided in this chapter.
The AV-Client does not require an IP address in order to authenticate; the client relies on the DLC proto-
col (rather than IP) to communicate with the authentication agent in the switch. After authentication, the
client may issue a DHCP release/renew request to get an IP address; a utility in the client software may be
used to configure this automatic request. For information about configuring the utility, see
“Configuring
the AV-Client Utility” on page 18-18
.
The AV-Client software requires three main installation steps as listed here. These steps are slightly differ-
ent depending on the version of Windows you are using.
•

“Loading the Microsoft DLC Protocol Stack” on
