Product Overview

Cisco

NAC Guest Server is a core component of the Cisco TrustSec

solution that can be added to Cisco NAC

wired or wireless deployments to integrate secure guest access. Cisco NAC Guest Server facilitates the creation

of guest accounts for temporary network access by permitting any internal user to sponsor a guest and create the

guest account in a simple and secure manner. In addition, the whole process is recorded in a single place and

available for reporting purposes, inclusive of network access activity details.

Applications

Cisco NAC Guest Server is ideal for organizations that may need to provide Internet access to visiting customers

and partners. Productivity demands and advances in mobility have transformed enterprises into major hotspots.

The Cisco NAC Guest Server vastly streamlines the process of offering guest access accounts in a simple,

secure, and flexible way.

Features and Benefits

Cisco NAC Guest Server enables your organization to do the following:

●

Provide a complete access control and confidentiality solution: Cisco NAC Guest Server is deployable

with other Cisco TrustSec components - including policy components, infrastructure enforcement

components, endpoint components, and professional services - for a comprehensive access control and

confidentiality solution.

●

Decrease deployment and management costs: Cisco NAC Guest Server allows trusted employees to

create guest accounts quickly and securely. This removes the resource burden from IT and help desk

personnel.

●

Reduce deployment risk: Automating temporary account provisioning with a fixed policy reduces the risk

of human error and allows for removal at the correct time.

●

Improve productivity for guests: The streamlining of guest account creation encourages guests to use

the network and enhances productivity.

●

Improve customer and partner satisfaction: Providing guest access for visitors enables greater

collaboration. Customers and partners alike appreciate this capability.

Sponsor Authentication

Cisco NAC Guest Server provides the ability for sponsors - employees of the host company - to create guest

accounts. Sponsors are authenticated against the web interface on the guest server and are granted permissions

based on their role. The administrator decides which policies should be applied against each user role.
