Hi team,

in a XIQ-SE deployment with Analytics and without NAC, is there anyway to identify the user?

Regards

No, the username column information is sourced from the distributed cache that exists between NAC appliances. I don't believe there is any other way to get the username information to populate.

You can use API call to fill the NAC end-system table (MAC, IP, Username, Hostname). Then these data will be used by Analytics.

Hi EF.

here is something that can help you:

also the NBI call:

https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/XIQ-SE_API/22.9.10/GraphQLschema/accesscontrolmutations.doc.html

# Publish end-system events.

# Arguments
# input:
endSystemEventPublish(input: EndSystemEventInput😞 AccessControlOutput

Good luck
