Cisco recommends that you deploy Early Deployment releases in test network before deploying in a 
production network.

For general information on licensing for Cisco NAC Profiler Server and Cisco NAC Profiler Collector 
see 

.

The Cisco NAC Profiler system consists of a Cisco NAC Profiler Server or Cisco NAC Profiler Lite 
Server, implemented as a standalone appliance or High Availability (HA) pair, and one or more Profiler 
Collectors that run on NAC Server appliances (NAC-3310 or NAC-3350). The Profiler Collectors can 
also be deployed as HA pairs when run on NAC Server HA pairs.

The Cisco NAC Profiler appliances leverage the Cisco NAC Appliance 3300 Series hardware platforms.

The Cisco NAC Profiler Server is based on the NAC-3350 hardware platform and is pre-installed with a 
default version of the Cisco NAC Profiler Server software. 

The Cisco NAC Profiler Lite is based on the NAC-3310 hardware platform and is also pre-installed with 
a default version of the Cisco NAC Profiler Lite software. Profiler Lite requires a separate ISO file.

A default version of the Profiler Collector component is included as service on NAC Server appliances 
beginning with the Cisco NAC Appliance release 4.1.2.1 and later. The NAC Server operates on 
NAC-3310 and/or NAC-3350 SERVER Appliance platforms only.

For proper operation, both the Profiler Collector component on the NAC Server and Cisco NAC Profiler 
Server (Profiler Server or Profiler Lite) must run the same version of the Cisco NAC Profiler software. 
Refer to 

 for details.

You need to upgrade the default version of the Profiler Collector shipped with the NAC Server software 
for compatibility with the latest Cisco NAC Profiler release 3.1.0. For details refer to
