Multi-site deployment

The Multi-Site Deployment feature for NAC Edges allows for a seamless hybrid integration of on-premise components with the NAC Cloud. This deployment model enables NAC Edges to communicate directly with local network devices, enforcing security policies while simultaneously receiving configuration and policy updates from the Cloud.

Key Features:

• Independent Operation: Each NAC Edge functions autonomously, ensuring direct enforcement of security measures at each site.
• Custom Configuration: Administrators have the flexibility to configure multiple NAC Edge components, each with unique authentication settings tailored to specific requirements.
• Multi-Site Capability: NAC Edges can be deployed across various sites, ensuring consistent security enforcement and policy application throughout the organization.
• Centralized Monitoring: The MDITA Cloud portal provides real-time monitoring and visibility into the status and performance of all deployed NAC Edges, enabling effective management and oversight.

Note: Each NAC Edge can only integrate with 1 Virtual Machine. Incase you have multiple NAC Edges, then multiple VMs will be required.

Examples

Create three NAC Edges to represent a deployment across three different sites, with each Edge utilizing a different authentication method.

• Site A:

  • Client: Unifi-switch

- Authentication Method: EAP-TLS (cert-based)

• Site B:

  • Client: Aruba

- Authentication Method: EAP-PEAP

• Site C:

  • Client: Cisco

- Authentication Method: EAP-TTLS
