Ebook Free Download | Cisco Network Admission Control andMicrosoft Network Access Protection Interoperability Architecture | Cisco Systems®, Inc. and Microsoft® Corporation have developed an interoperability architecture that allows customers to deploy both the Network Admission Control (NAC) platform available from Cisco® and the Network Access Protection (NAP) platform being developed for Microsoft Windows Vista™ (now in beta testing) and Windows Server® code name “Longhorn” (now in beta testing). The result is a set of components that interoperate, allowing customers to enforce health requirements for network access using a combination of components from Cisco and Microsoft. This white paper describes the set of characteristics that will support the interoperability architecture and how the interoperability architecture works.
Interoperability Features and Benefits- Cisco and Microsoft have collaborated to enable rich interoperability between the Cisco Network Admission Control (NAC) and Microsoft Network Access Protection (NAP) solutions. This interoperability will allow customers to realize the benefits of both NAC and NAP while using and preserving their investments in their NAC network and Microsoft NAP desktop and server infrastructure. Interoperability will be supported with the release of NAP in the future version of Windows Server, codenamed Longhorn, which is scheduled to be available in the second half of 2007.
