Chapter 6 Agentless Host Support Configuration Scenario
Summary of Configuration Steps
GAME group feedback provides an added security check for MAC address authentication by checking
the device type categorization that ACS determines by associating a MAC address with a user group
against information stored in a database on an audit server.
To use the GAME group feedback feature, you must add a NAC attribute-value pair to the ACS RADIUS
dictionary before configuring a posture validation policy that uses GAME group feedback.
You then configure a posture validation policy in a NAP that requests device type authentication from
the audit server. For details on configuring posture validation, see Enable Posture Validation, page
7-46.
The detailed steps for configuring GAME group feedback are described in Enable GAME Group
Feedback, page
7-46 in Chapter 9, “NAC Configuration Scenario.”
