Network access configurations
Network access configurations define access treatments for connecting hosts and users. Hosts can be placed in a particular VLAN, have a CLI configuration applied or be passed a VPN Group Policy. The network access configuration that is assigned to a particular host is determined by the pairing of a network access configuration and a user/host profile within a network access policy.
When a host requires network access, the host and user are compared to the user/host profile in each network access policy starting with the first policy in the list. When a policy is found where the host and user data match the user/host profile in the policy, that policy is assigned. The network access configuration contained within that policy specifies the treatment received by the host.
