This course is intended for:

• Cisco Customers
• Cisco Channel Partners
• Cisco Resellers
• Cisco Employees

• Certification as a CCSP or the equivalent knowledge

• Basic knowledge of the Windows operating system

• Familiarity with networking and security terminology and concepts

After completing this course, you will be able to:

• Understand how Cisco NAC operates

• Configure Cisco Secure ACS to operate as a Cisco NAC AAA policy server

• Configure Cisco IOS routers, switches, and access points to act as Cisco NAC NADs

• Configure Cisco agents to act as Cisco NAC clients

• Configure a Trend Micro policy server to operate as an external Cisco NAC policy server

This 3-day course includes Network Access Devices (NADs) switch (layer 2): NAC Phase 2 Network devices that enforce admission control policy on switches. This device demands host security “credentials” and relay this information to policy servers, where network admission control decisions are made. Based on customer-defined policy, the network will enforce the appropriate admission control decision permit, deny, quarantine or restrict.
