Before network access is permitted, rogue hosts connecting to the VPN must register with FortiNAC via the captive portal or Persistent Agent. If it is not desired to register unknown hosts connecting to the VPN, skip this step.

Configure FortiNAC to authenticate using either a RADIUS server or LDAP directory. Refer to the Administration Guide sections listed below for instructions. Depending upon the deployment, these components may already be configured.

  1. Define which authentication server type will be used (LDAP or RADIUS). See Portal configuration – Configure authentication credentials

  2. Configure the settings for the authentication server. Refer to the appropriate section:
