6.4. Summary
Following are key points from this chapter:
Cisco Clean Access does not require the use of a Cisco-only network infrastructure.
This solution is an appliance-based solution.
The key components are the Clean Access Manager (CAM), Clean Access Server (CAS), and the Clean Access Agent (CAA).
Clean Access can assess, quarantine, and remediate devices as they physically connect to the corporate LAN and when they access the LAN via VPN.
This solution is available in Client and Clientless modes.
This solution can require that authentication take place to provide access to the network.
Clean Access can integrate with existing, supported Cisco network equipment in Out-of-Band mode.
Clean Access is designed to protect the corporate LAN from unauthorized and security deficient devices and users.
This solution does not address mobile devices when they are mobile and not connected to the corporate network.
Clean Access integrates with more than 28 antivirus and antispyware vendor solutions.
Now that you have a grasp of Cisco's Clean Access NAC solution, it's time to examine Cisco's NAC Framework option, which is the topic of discussion for Chapter 7.
