151 Barracuda NG Network Access Client - Administrator’s Guide

Client Origin

• Local Computer

Health evaluation for the client computer is mandatory; if the health evaluation for the client computer
is not successful, evaluation based on user credentials is not possible.

• Current User

When multiple users use the same computer it is possible to start health evaluation based on user
credentials, matching each user with its own policy depending on his role in the network.

• VPN

When connected to the Access Control Server using a VPN connection

Last Health Check

Date and time when the last health evaluation was performed.

Next Health Check

Date and time the next health evaluation will be performed.

Quarantine Status

The quarantine status depends on the health condition of the client computer. Three states are provided for
policy based network access, these include:

• Not Restricted

Full network access is granted when the health evaluation result returns the health state

Healthy

.

• Probation

When the client computer does not meet the configured health requirements, it will enter probation
state. In this state he is not restricted in order to contact network resources necessary to meet all health
requirements. If the following health evaluation does not return a

Healthy

state he will enter restricted

network access mode.

• Restricted

If restricted network access is active, the Client will activate the quarantine rule set assigned by the
Access Control Server.

Note:
It is possible to configure two quarantine rule sets, one for when the client computer does not meet the
health requirements and is unhealthy. The other for when the client computer is untrusted because no rule
is defined for it.

Access Control Server

11.3.2 Access Control Server IPs from Registry, page 160 and 11.3.3 Access Control Server IPs from DHCP,
