NAC Framework - NAC-L2-802.1x without CSSC client?

Hi
I'm just wondering if it is possible to do NAC-L2-802.1x without the use of the CSSC client? I've managed to get this working with the CSSC client with no problems, but have been having nothing but problems trying to get this working without. This client software is pretty expensive and if it is possible to get around using it, that'd be great. Thanks for any info.
Jason

You can do 802.1x without CSSC, you cannot support remediation without it however. 802.1x by itself allows you authentication, and dynamic VLAN assignment.

NAC Framework NAC-L3-IP, passing posture validation, but no ACLs downloaded

Hi
I've got the NAC Framework NAC-L3-IP setup using an 1800 router and Cisco ACS Server 4.2. When my client attempts to reach the internet (through our NAD configured for network admission), I get a popup saying the Posture is Healthy, the ACS server says its good, yet I never get any of my configured ACLs downloaded to the router. I think my problem is with my RADIUS AUthorization Components...what should the Healthy RAC look like? This is what I've currently got;
IETF Session-Timeout (27) 36000
IETF Termination-Action (29) RADIUS-Request (1)
Cisco IOS/PIX 6.0 cisco-av-pair (1) status-query-timeout=300
I've got that RAC tied to a NAP and a downloadable ACL also associated to it through the Network Access Profiles page.
Can anyone provide help with this. Thanks

Ooops, nevermind, I had to enable aaa authorization network default group radius and then the ACLs downloaded as expected. Thanks!

NAC framework NAC-L2-802.1x, CTA 2.1, CSSC, ACS 4.2 not working???

Hi
I'm trying to setup my first crack at the NAC framework, using NAC-L2-802.1x. For this, the equipment I'm using is;
Cisco 2950 switch (IOS /c2950-i6q4l2-mz.121-22.EA11.bin)
Cisco 1811 router (inter-vlan routing)
Cisco Secure ACS (90 day trial) 4.2
CTA 2.1.103
CSSC 5.1.0.39
Windows XP SP3 client machine
So I've tried to follow the Network Admission Control Framework Guide for the NAC-L2-802.1x section and all seems to have gone as laid out in the document, except when I get to the point where I actually test the config by bringing up the client port. I do the 'no shut' on the port, the light on the switch port goes amber and the CSSC client says its waiting for an ip address, it never pops up asking for credentials as shown in that document. I check the RADIUS server logs and there is no passes or fails for this host. I know RADIUS is working from this switch as I have it setup for login authentication which works just fine. I am completely stumped and the only thing I can think of is trying to install a full certificate server and going that way, instead of the Self Signed Cert which CSACS has generated and I've copied the .cer file to the client and installed it and verified it is installed with the Certificates MMC. Please, somebody provide some better reading on this matter, or some assistance. Thanks very much.

Configuring NAC Framework ( NAC-L3-IP ), any guides or help?

So I've been doing some research on the NAC Framework and the various modes of operation. So far, I've gotten NAC-L2-802.1x working great and I'd like to add on the NAC-L3-IP on our edge routers/firewalls, but I can't find any guides detailing how to do so...everything says to see the "NAC Implementation Guide" which I can't find anyplace. Can anyone direct me to a NAC-L3-IP guide? Thanks very much.

NAC Framework NAC-L2-802.1x with Wireless AP1242AG?

Hi
Can anyone provide some info on setting up NAC-L2-802.1x with a Wireless AP1242AG (not using the NAC Appliance, but the Framework). I cant seem to find the equivalent dot1x port control auto commands on the access-point. Thanks
Jason

NAC assesses the state, or posture, of a host to prevent unauthorized or vulnerable endpoints from accessing the network. Enforcement is performed through an authorization policy that is centrally defined on a single ACS server or delegated to multiple NAC posture validation servers

NAC Framework with 802.1x authentication

I am having trouble getting support and information on NAC framework. According to the cisco web NAC framework is in Phase 2 and is useable. According to Cisco representitives it is not supported yet. I have ACS 4.1, CTA 2.0, Symantec 10.1.4, and CSA 4.5. I can get NAC to work Layer 2, 802.1x to authenticate, but I cannot get both to work at the same time. Also, I have found no support for Symantec being checked even after I loaded the posture plugin, adf, etc. Is it time to give up on NAC framework? Thanks.

My friend, i have a customer with whis configuration and worki fine.
symantec need antivirus version 10 (8 or 9 no !!!!), the symantec posture plug installed in the clients.
work fine wiht w2k and xp
cta 2.x work fine. 1.x only work with L3 ip, no 802.1x.
csa i don?t have experience.
take care, it is hard to configure, if you need something more ask me to.

NAC Framework with TrendMicro Policy Server? External Posture Assessment?

Hi
I've got a NAC Framework 2.1 setup using NAC-L2-802.1x with 2950 switches and so far it's working great. I've recently begun testing NAC with TrendMicro OfficeScan, which includes the Trend Policy Server for Cisco NAC.
I've imported the Trend.adf file, created a new Internal Posture Validation to check these TrendAV settings (DAT version, protection enabled, etc) and it is working great with the clients. (Healthy if up to date, quarantined if out of date).
What I'm trying to do is get this integrated with the Trend Policy Server for Cisco NAC. I've created an External Posture Validation entry for the Trend Policy Server;
https://win2k3std:4343/antibody
And have supplied it with the password (no username is needed to login to the web console of this server). I've also selected Trend:AV as the forwarding credential. I've gone into Network Access Profiles and made sure this was selected as an External Posture Validation Server and set it to quarantine under "Failure Posture Token". When I test this from the client (once I've enable External Posture Validation), it always ends up quarantined (even though the client is fully up to date). If I disable the External Posture Validation server from the NAP, the client test passes as Healthy (since all AV is up to date).
I've got the Policy Server for Cisco NAC defined under NAC on my Trend OfficeScan server, and on the Policy Server for Cisco NAC, I've got the OfficeScan server defined. Yet, no matter what I've tried, the client always fails with this msg in the CSACS logs;
Posture Validation Failure on External Policy
Does anyone have any experience or help with this. Thanks very much.

How to qualify for NAC Framework?

Hi, we have been considering NAC for a while and have evaluated NAC Appliance. However, we have a requirement to use 802.1x for posture validation, authentication etc. I have looked at cisco trust agent and there is a statement about needing to be 'approved' to deploy CTA? Any one have any ideas about how to go about this and to be able to deploy NAC framework? We feel framework fits our situation much better than appliance. Many thanks for your time.

Exact statement would be
"The Cisco Trust Agent is available for download only by customers approved to deploy the NAC Framework solution. If you are not approved, please contact your Cisco account team about Cisco NAC solutions. Deprecated versions of Cisco Trust Agent - CLITE client may be found at http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cta-deprecated "

NAC Framework vs NAC Appliance??? Cisco says, Appliance is 'easier'...

Hi
So I've recently been told by Cisco that I shouldn't be deploying the NAC framework and that they REALLY suggest the appliance instead. Can anyone provide me with some REAL reasons why I'd want to purchase more hardware from Cisco when I've already got all the necessary pieces for the Framework deployed on my network. Cisco, at this point, has not given me a good reason other than, the appliance is easier to deploy...and to me, that is a highly subjective statement. Please help. Thanks
Jason

Jason,
From my experience the appliances are the way to go. It is just like Colin said, the deployment is much easier. What's more the testing is much easier. For instance, in a typical out-of-band solution for a wired network you could test your configuration on a single port on a single switch. This is much less invasive than the NAC framework and much easier to tune.
Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps.
Paul

I've tried multiple ways to cope with this problem but nothing was helpfull...

I use only ACS Radius attributes and chose ony what ACS allows me to choose (Tunnel-medium-type: 802).

The same situation occurs when i try to use some Vendor Specific Attributes (Cisco-AV-Pair) - downloadable ACEs to my user, and again, i see Radius attributes in my debug but nothing is applied to my L3 Switch.
What am i missing?
