Downloads

The Cisco® NAC Guest Server adds a new Secure Guest service to existing Cisco Network Admission Control (NAC) services such as authentication, posture, and profiling. The new Cisco NAC Guest Server enables simple, efficient, and secure management of guest network access. Cisco NAC Guest Server works with either Cisco NAC Appliance or Cisco wireless LAN controllers to manage the entire lifecycle of guest access, including:

• Provisioning: Allows any internal sponsor to create guest accounts

• Notification: Provides access details to the guest by print, e-mail, or text message

• Management: Makes it easy to modify and suspend accounts

• Reporting: Provides full reporting on guest accounts and guest activity

Cisco NAC Guest Server helps IT staff deal with administrative challenges commonly associated with supporting corporate visitors. The Secure Guest service enhances IT's ability to protect its own organization's assets, employees, and information from guests and their devices while providing secure and flexible network access to meet visitors' business needs. Cisco NAC Guest Server with its Secure Guest service delivers the following business benefits:

• Decreases deployment and management costs. Cisco NAC Guest Server allows trusted employees to create guest accounts quickly and securely. This removes the burden from IT and helpdesk personnel.

• Improves productivity. Streamlined account provisioning and notification processes help increase both guest usage and the productivity benefits for internal users and their guests.

• Improves customer and partner satisfaction. Providing guest access for visitors enables greater collaboration. Customers and partners alike appreciate this capability.
