Hi,

New to this forum - looking at PF as a possible solution to my NAC 
needs for a number of remote offices. I have several remote offices 
that do not have IT staff and the computers are essentially 
unmanaged. These computers connect through site-to-site VPN tunnels 
to a central hub that has resources used by the remote offices 
(email, web proxy, etc). In some cases there are also resources 
behind the VPN routers at the remote offices that other remote 
offices have access to (PBX, file servers, etc). 

DHCP for the office computers is handled locally at each office by 
the router. Another possible complication is that the central 
server system is actually a VMware ESXi 4.x hypervisor-based system 
(one vm is the VPN hub, one is the web proxy, etc). 

What I would like to happen is if a computer from a remote office 
(call it site A) connects through the VPN tunnel to the central 
system (i.e. site B) the connection is intercepted by PF and a 
registration is required. I would also like the Nessus and Snort-
type capabilites to be utilized and the registration/isolation 
VLANs to be on the central system so that any unregistered, 
unpatched, or mis-behaving systems don't get any farther than the 
VPN hub.

Is this doable and does anyone have any examples on how they have 
done it?

Thanks a bunch...
