Well we have Cisco WAPs, controllers, and radius servers.  We have full
authentication built into Active Directory.  We are missing the whole
NAC piece though like the checks for Antivirus, scanning, patching etc
before you autehnticate.
 
Thanks.

There are controls built into a lot of the 3rd-party firmware for
wireless access points to allow you to have a "hotspot" mode. I'm sure
that could be modified to require authentication against the network,
etc.

We currently have a homegrown system for our dorm students on campus for
our wired network.  It resembles Cisco clean access, but it is
agent-less.  It basically puts all ports on an isolated subnet that can
only get to our "ResNet" clean access system

 

Our system makes sure that they remove their current and install our
Corporate managed Antivirus Product, it makes them run Microsoft Update
to patch their system, run a qucik spyware scan with an embedded scanner
on the webpage, then it makes them authenticate against our user
database serverss and then it "flips" their network port over to the non
isolated network segment (vlan).

 

We do not have wireless in the dorms, and we need to get it there soon.
The reason why we don't have wireless in the dorms is so they don't
bypass our "clean access" system when they bring their machines from
home filled with junk.

 

Does anyone know a good package to look at for wireless nac?  Agentless
would be best,  We evaluated Clean Access 2 years ago and it really
wasn't worth the money.  Had alot of issues and maybe just wasn't mature
then?

 

Thanks for any suggestions.

 

Bob
