NAC Unable to reach the appliance

[Ilya_Semenov]

Hello, everybody!

I have installed NAC in a virtual machine and the installation process completed successfully. I have installed NAC license and can ping address of the machine from everywhere. However, from Netsight server I can't get access to NAC appliance using NAC console. The NAC Appliance is accessible over http:\x.x.x.x:8080 and :8443

How can I use this sophisticated software??? Please, help! The only reason to use NAC is ExtremeWifi can't provide (Out-of-box, I mean) authentications for users when client has more than 1 Active Directory Domain!!!

Please, take a look at the picture below. I get this message and don't know what to do.

Many thanks in advance,

Ilya

Many thanks to everybody!

I have installed the NAC, the licenses were also applied, now it's green at the console tree.

Now the task is configure authentication for users in two AD domains using Internal Captive Portal on C5210 and MS RADIUS (NPS).

It sounds like this isnt really a NAC appliance if the nacconfig isnt working and the directories are missing. You should re-iso the appliance in this case.

..or somehow it has become corrupt. I would not use it and re-iso.

Gentlemen,

there is one more question appeared: how can I check whether NAC was properly installed?

I've found a lot of useful command to be executed over CLI, try to connect to my NAC over SSH and can't execute them, for example:

root@nac:~# nacconfig
nacconfig: command not found

Please, take a look at this:

root@nac:~# find.

AND at this also...(below). Is everything OK with my NAC installation?
