Cisco Wireless NAC Appliance - Design Practices ??

[munawar.zeeshan]

Hi,

I have a new Cisco WIreless NAC appliance, the purpose of which is to manage the Guest users access to network. I have been searching for some best practices related to the design of this appliance but havent found one.

Can anybody help me in sharing his design experience or any docuement which would be guiding in deciding over the design / placement of this NAC device in network.

Thank You.

Hi,

there is nothing such as "Wireless Nac appliance".

The question is "do you have the NAC Guest Server" or the "Nac appliance Server and Nac appliance Manager (CAS/CAM)" ?

Because those are just not the same at all.

Then on the wireless side, do you have autonomous APs or a WLC ?

Sorry to ask, but there's just so many possibilities you could be asking that we need to clarify.

My bet is that you are either looking for this :
