utility manually, you can issue the 
service perfigo config
 CLI command on either the Clean Access 
Server or Clean Access Manager. When using 
service perfigo config
, you will also need to enter 
service perfigo reboot
 after configuration is complete to reboot the machine.

Step 2
Login as user:

Step 4
Accept the default values or provide new ones for all prompts (as described in Running the 
Configuration Utility, page 31).

service perfigo reboot
 to reboot the machine.

Accessing the CAM Web Console
The Clean Access Manager web administration console is the primary interface for administering the 
Cisco NAC Appliance deployment. After initial configuration is complete, use the following steps to 
access the CAM web console. 
Step 1
Launch a web browser from a computer accessible to the CAM by network. (Microsoft 
Internet Explorer 6.0 and 7.0 are supported.)
Step 2
In the URL/address field, type the IP address of the CAM (or the host name if you have made 
the required entry in your DNS server). 
Step 3
If using a temporary SSL certificate, the security alert appears and you are prompted to accept 
the certificate. Click Yes to accept the certificate. (If using signed certificates, security dialogs 
will not appear.)
