Legacy or non Extreme APs connecting to a Fabric switch using NAC.

So I am in the middle of a new deployment and we ran into an issue that I would love to solve. We are running XIQ-SE and NAC. We are setting up new 5420 switches running VOSS 9 and when we tested the APs (AP230s in this case) thing went wrong in several ways. The old setup used a different management VLAN and native VLAN. I fixed that and now I just need to get a good sample of how to send the i-sids to the port with NAC for the AP. We have the AP doing a MAC auth to the switch and it is set to AP aware. Now I just need the settings to put in the NAC. Anyone have some screen shots of a setup that works? I have found lots of how to documents but most are for XOS or not with NAC or some other combination that does not match mine. I know it is something simple but I am new to NAC.

There is a big pow wow planned next week with some engineers to solve this but I really want to have my head wrapped around the solution before then.

Thanks

On the support portal if you drill down to Products -> ExtremeCloud -> ExtremeCloud IQ - Site Engine -> Documentation there are two PDF guides that may apply here.

Thanks for the links but unfortunately like so many other documents these also kinda skim over the topic of WAP and have no screen shots.
