Assigning a NAC Policy to a Group Policy

Assigning a NAC Policy to a Group Policy

Upon completion of each tunnel setup, the ASA applies the NAC policy, if it is assigned to the group
policy, to the session. By default, the

nac-settings

command is not present in the configuration of each

group policy. The ASA automatically enables NAC for a group policy when you assign a NAC policy to
it.

Detailed Steps

Changing Global NAC Framework Settings

The ASA provides default settings for a NAC Framework configuration. Use the instructions in this
section to adjust these settings for adherence to the policies in force in your network.

Changing Clientless Authentication Settings

NAC Framework support for clientless authentication is configurable. It applies to hosts that do not have
a Cisco Trust Agent to fulfill the role of posture agent. The ASA applies the default access policy, sends
the EAP over UDP request for posture validation, and the request times out. If the ASA is not configured
to request a policy for clientless hosts from the Access Control Server, it retains the default access policy
already in use for the clientless host. If the ASA is configured to request a policy for clientless hosts
from the Access Control Server, it does so and the Access Control Server downloads the access policy
to be enforced by the ASA.
