Re: NAC Implementation

[Tristan RHODES <TristanRhodes () WEBER EDU>]

Just wanted to mention that we have implemented PacketFence in our
ResNet and we planning on deploying it on our wireless network.
PacketFence is a great open source tool that I would recommend to anyone
who is evaluating a NAC implementation.

The I2 NetAuth working group has been keeping a list of commercial and
open-source vendors in the NAC space.  Check out the Wiki:

Commercial Products
https://wiki.internet2.edu/confluence/display/NetAuthWG/Commercial+NetAuth+Type+Products


(now up to 39)

Open Source
https://wiki.internet2.edu/confluence/display/NetAuthWG/Open+Source+NetAuth+Type+Solutions




Cisco Clean Access (Perfigo) is also popular in the higher ed market.
For
open-source, PacketFence has been also doing well (disclaimer I am
also
a co-creator :)
