Step-by-Step Guide: Demonstrate NAP 802.1X Enforcement in a Test Lab

This paper contains an introduction to NAP and instructions for setting up a test lab to deploy NAP with the 802.1X enforcement method. The lab requires two server and two client computers, and an 802.1X compliant switch that supports the use of RADIUS tunnel attributes to specify the 802.1X client VLAN. With this test network, you can create and enforce client health requirements using NAP and the 802.1X features on your switch.
