Design Procedures
This
chapter
describes
the
design
procedures
for
Enterasys
NAC
deployment
on
an
enterprise
network.
The
first
section
discusses
procedures
for
both
out
‐
of
‐
band
and
inline
NAC
deployments.
The
second
section
discusses
procedures
for
deployments
implementing
assessment.
Subsequent
sections
present
design
steps
relating
specifically
to
out
‐
of
band
deployments
using
the
NAC
Gateway
and
inline
deployments
using
the
NAC
Controller.
Procedures for Out-of-Band and Inline NAC
This
section
presents
design
procedures
that
are
applicable
to
both
out
‐
of
‐
band
and
inline
NAC
deployments.
1. Identify Required NetSight Applications
As
discussed
in
“
NetSight
Management
”
on
page 1
‐
9,
the
Enterasys
NAC
solution
requires
the
installation
of
two
applications
from
the
NetSight
management
software
suite.
NetSight
NAC
Manager
is
required
to
centrally
manage
the
NAC
Controller
and
NAC
Gateway
appliances
on
the
network.
Because
NAC
Manager
is
a
plugin
application
to
NetSight
Console,
it
is
necessary
to
have
NetSight
Console
installed
on
a
server
with
NAC
Manager.
NetSight
Console
is
used
to
monitor
the
health
and
status
of
devices
on
the
network,
including
the
access
layer
switches
and
the
NAC
appliances.
In
addition,
NetSight
Policy
Manager
is
required
for
inline
NAC
deployments.
Policy
Manager
is
used
to
centrally
define
and
distribute
policies
to
all
NAC
Controllers
on
the
network.
For
out
‐
of
‐
band
NAC
deployments
that
include
Enterasys
policy
‐
enabled
switches
in
the
intelligent
edge,
policies
are
specified
in
NAC
Manager
that
authorize
connecting
end
‐
systems
with
a
particular
level
of
network
access.
Policies
are
centrally
defined
and
distributed
to
those
Enterasys
switches
using
Policy
Manager.
With
Policy
Manager,
policy
roles
are
easily
defined
and
enforced
to
all
Enterasys
switches
in
the
entire
intelligent
edge
of
the
network,
from
one
central
location.
