NAC Policies
2 Enter a policy name.
3 Enter a description in the Description text box.
4 Select a NAC policy group.
5 Select either the enabled radio button or the disabled radio button.
6 Select the Operating systems that will not be tested but are allowed network access.
Windows Vista Windows ME or Windows 95

All other unsupported OSs
■
NOTE
In DHCP mode, if an endpoint with an unsupported OS already has a DHCP-assigned IP address, Sentriant AG
cannot affect this endpoint in any way until the lease on the existing IP address for that endpoint expires. If an
endpoint with an unsupported OS has a static IP address, Sentriant AG cannot affect this endpoint in any way. In
both of these cases, the System Monitor window may show the quarantined icon next to these endpoints; however, if
you hover your mouse over the red circle, the actual status shows that the endpoint should be quarantined, but the
quarantine action was unsuccessful.
CAUTION
Allowing untested endpoints on your network contains risks. See "Untestable Endpoints and DHCP Mode" on
page 212 for more information.
7 In the Retest frequency area, enter how frequently Sentriant AG should retest a connected machine.
NOTE
A lower number ensures higher security, but puts more load on the Sentriant AG server.
8 In the Inactive endpoints area, enter how long an end-user can be inactive before they have to log in
again. To allow end-users to remain connected indefinitely select never quarantine inactive
endpoints.
