Multiple Cisco NAC Clients

jpecarski · ‎04-22-2010

A question was posed by a client regarding the Cisco NAC solution. Is it possible for the cisco NAC client to co-exist with another cisco NAC client? Can you have two different versions installed on the same system?

My client will be dealing with plenty of 3rd parties so there is a chance the party may already be utilizing the nac client for another enterprise. Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Not likely, i would say use the web agent if you are going to be supporting multiple customer installations with different versions.

Two different versions? No

Two different installations? Depends. Some agent versions work with older CAM/CAS versions. Old Agent versions might work with new CAM/CAS, but that's untested and unsupported. You also will have to tweak your Discovery Host settings in the agent to the right IP/Host name for whichever network your client connects to.

HTH,
