Logical networks

Use logical networks to separate network access policies from device specific values. Each logical network has an access value, which is translated to the physical value of network infrastructure devices. FortiNAC uses this value to provision the appropriate network access. Using logical networks can simplify network policy management by reducing the number of required policies.

Once you create a logical network, you then assign access values on individual devices, then assign a network access configuration for the logical network.

In a FortiNAC Manager environment, you can create logical networks on the FortiNAC Manager and push this information to other managed FortiNAC appliances.
