Transferring Agent Information Externally

Note

  • Transferring agent information externally is available from Genian NAC version 6.0.35 or higher. For versions below 6.0.35, please use the Deploy Files V2 plugin.

  • Agent information external transmission 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 becomes either Authenticated or Deauthenticated, the authentication information is transmitted to an external third-party application. This is used to perform authentication across multiple solutions with a single authentication process.
