Cisco Cisco NAC Appliance 4.5 Release Notes

Any ED release of software should be utilized first in a test network before being deployed in a 
production network.

This section describes the following:

You must obtain and install Cisco NAC Appliance product licenses for the Clean Access Manager 
(CAM) and Clean Access Server (CAS) in order for your deployment to function. Install the CAM 
product license in the CAM License Form to initially access the CAM web admin console. Once you can 
access the CAM web console, upload the additional CAM HA license or CAS license(s) into the CAM 
(under Administration > CCA Manager > Licensing) in order to add CASs to the CAM, including the 
Cisco NAC network module. An OOB CAS license must be present to access the “OOB Management” 
module of the CAM. The Licensing page displays the types of licenses present after they are added. 

Note that both CAM and CAS product licenses are generated based on the eth0 MAC address of the 
CAM. For High Availability (HA) pairs, you must generate an additional CAM HA license based on the 
eth0 MAC addresses of both Primary and Secondary CAMs and install it on the CAM whether you are 
adding a CAM HA-pair or CAS HA-pair.

For complete details on service contract support, obtaining new and evaluation licenses, legacy licenses 
and RMA, refer to
