Transferring agent information externally
Note
- Transferring agent information externally is available in Genian NAC version 5.0.58 or higher. For versions below 5.0.58, please use the File Distribution v2 plugin.
- Transferring agent information externally is used when you want to integrate the agent's authentication information with external third-party applications.
- When a node performs authentication and the agent's authentication status changes to authenticated or unauthenticated, the authentication information is sent to a third party, allowing multiple solution authentications to be performed with a single authentication.
