Cisco Cisco NAC Guest Server 2.1 Documentation Roadmaps

This document provides important license and documentation information for Cisco NAC Guest Server, 
a provisioning, management, and reporting system that provides temporary network access for guests, 
visitors, contractors, consultants, or customers. The Cisco NAC Guest Server works alongside 
Cisco NAC Appliance, Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers, and other Cisco Network Enforcement devices, 
which provide the captive portal and enforcement point for guest access.

A Product Authorization Key (PAK) for each Cisco NAC Guest Server that you purchase is affixed as a sticky 
label at the bottom of the Software License Claim Certificate card included in your package. Carefully follow 
the instructions on this card to perform customer registration via web. You must submit each PAK you 
received and correctly enter the eth0 MAC address of your Cisco NAC Guest Server to obtain valid license 
file(s) for your system. For each PAK that you submit, a license file is generated and sent to you via email, 
which you should save to disk. You will need to install these license files on your Cisco NAC Guest Server 
later. For details, see Cisco NAC Appliance Service Contract / Licensing Support at
