Viewing Information About Tests

To view the most current list of tests and descriptions:
Sentriant AG Home window>>NAC policies>>Select a NAC Policy>>Tests menu option
Click on a test name. The test description and selectable properties are shown for the selected test.
If the icons
(Figure 106 on page
200) are red, the test is enabled and the actions selected will take effect
immediately. If the icons are gray, the test is not enabled, and the actions will not take effect. To enable
the test, select the check box next to the test name.

Selecting Test Properties

Tests either have standard properties (non-selectable), selectable properties, or text entry fields.
Select the check box or radio button that applies for each test. A check box indicates that you can make
multiple selections. A radio button indicates that you can make one choice from the list.

Entering Software Required/Not Allowed

Sentriant AG checks the Windows registry on the endpoint for the existence of software. Most software
vendors record their product information in the
registry key using the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software
following format:
<vendor>\<software package>\<version>
For example,
Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.6
You can enter any combination of these keys in the Sentriant AG text entry fields to detect a vendor,
software package and version on an endpoint (for example, you can also enter
or
Mozilla\Firefox
simply
) and Sentriant AG searches for them in the
registry
Mozilla
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software
key sub-tree.
NOTE
The entries are not case sensitive. This test simply checks to see if the registry key exists in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software or HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software. So, these values must match the registry
keys as displayed in the registry editor. If you just specify Mozilla and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mozilla
exists in the registry, the test would match.
To find the software registry keys on the endpoint:
1 Select Start>>Run
2 Type:
regedit
3 Click OK.
4 Expand the
key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
