About ProCurve Network Access
Controller 800
The ProCurve Network Access Controller 800 (ProCurve NAC) provides a
comprehensive access control solution. Used in conjunction with ProCurve
Manager Plus and Identity Driven Manager applications, the ProCurve NAC
serves to:
■ Protect the network and resources from unauthorized or harmful
users and/or systems.
■ Provide adaptive and appropriate network access based on roles
■ Enforce policies regarding required and prohibited software
The ProCurve NAC appliance comes pre-loaded with FreeRADIUS server
software, IDM Agent software, and Endpoint Integrity testing software,
designed to provide more security for your network with less complexity.
The ProNAC appliance can be deployed as a complete access control solution,
or you can use it to provide the RADIUS server for use with IDM for user
authentication.
The ProNAC software includes a graphical user interface (GUI) you can
access from within the PCM+ or IDM Windows displays. This interface can be
used to configure parameters on the ProNAC appliance, including RADIUS,
and full backup and restore. It also provides the interface to utilize the
endpoint integrity testing available with licensed versions of the ProNAC
software.
A five-user license is provided with the ProNAC appliance that allows you to
access the GUI for basic configuration tasks. In order to apply the endpoint
integrity solution to clients on your network, you will need to purchase
additional ProNAC software licenses from your authorized HP ProCurve
representative, or direct from ProCurve. Additional information is available
