Addendum to the ProCurve Access Control Security Design Guide

Microsoft NAP

DHCP

The DHCP method requires that DHCP be run on a Windows Server 2008 and also requires Active Directory domain services. Figure A-7 shows the network access method with DHCP.

Figure A-7. DHCP Network Access

1.The NAP client (using the DHCP NAP EC) sends its SSoH to a DHCP server, using DHCP protocols.

2.The DHCP server sends the client’s SSoH to the NPS, using RADIUS messages.

3.The NPS performs a system health validation and sends its verdict to the DHCP client.

4.The DHCP server takes one of the following actions:

a.If the endpoint is non-compliant, the DHCP server assigns the end- point a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 and no default gateway— preventing the endpoint from reaching any other IP address. The DHCP server also sends the endpoint static routes to addresses in the restricted subnet.

b.If the endpoint is compliant, the DHCP server assigns it an IP address that gives it unrestricted network access (in one of the normal sub- nets).
