  Brent Atkison - Network Access Protection with MSIT
Time: 17:13 EST/22:13 GMT | News Source: Channel 9 | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

Network Access Protection is a new feature in Windows Server 2008 that allows you to enforce computer health requirements before allowing machines to communicate on the network. It's the answer to the question "do I trust that this machine is patched and won't infect other machines on my network?"

These guys have done some pretty impressive stuff. The NAP team worked with a list of partners as long as your arm to make sure NAP will play nicely with whatever switch hardware you've invested in. Brent shares some impressive sizing guidelines for implementing NAP: Microsoft turned reporting and deferred enforcement on 120,000 machines worldwide, using a very small number of servers. Very small. Less than 3. Total help desk calls as a result? Also a very small number. Oh, and he did that deployment using beta builds of Longhorn Server 2008.
