Hello, team,

after reboot NAC is red in Console, but green in XMC. As result, nothing works.

I've read:

https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000078011
https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000063624

Nothing helped me. Curious, that nacstatus says that everything is OK.

Hello, Ryan,

I've done a new installation. Everything is 8.1. Now under ESXi 6.0. All VMs are in the same subnet, no firewall between them.

Both NACs are green in XMC, but red in NAC console. They all ping each other by IPs and hostnames.

927e877cdb644e1cac426cfc9395b899_RackMultipart20180608-99168-1gtjolp-wtf22_inline.jpg



I can see NAC's MIB Profiles on Netsight Console, no errors.

927e877cdb644e1cac426cfc9395b899_RackMultipart20180608-49503-vzq3ja-MIB_inline.jpg



I use default snmp_v3_profile, everything is AuthPriv, and I left exactly these settings during appliance installation:
