Step 3
To configure automatic updates on your CAM, click the checkbox for Automatically check for updates
starting from [] every [] hours, type a start time in 24-hour format (such as 13:00:00), and type a
“repeat” interval (1 hour is recommended).
Step 4 Click the Check for Windows NAC Agent updates option to ensure the CAM always downloads the
latest version of the Agent installer. This must be enabled for Agent auto-upgrade.
Step 5 Click the Check for Macintosh Clean Access Agent updates option to ensure the CAM always
downloads the latest version of the Agent. This must be enabled for Macintosh Clean Access Agent
auto-upgrade.
Step 6 Click the Check for Cisco NAC Web Agent updates option to ensure the CAM always downloads the
latest version of the Cisco NAC Web Agent.
Step 7 Click the Check for L3 MAC Address Detection ActiveX/Applet updates option to ensure the CAM
always downloads the latest versions of the L3 Java Applet and ActiveX web clients. Web login users
need to download these helper controls from the login page to enable the CAS to obtain MAC
information in L3 deployments (particularly for L3 OOB). Once the Agent is used, the Agent
automatically sends client MAC information to the CAS.
Step 8 Click the Check for Compliance Module for Windows Updates option to automatically poll the update
repository for the latest version of the AV/AS vendor support package that you can make available to
Windows client machines during their next login session. For more information on enabling updated
AV/AS posture pack downloads to client machines, see Agent Distribution, page 9-18.
Step 9 Click the Check for Compliance Module for Mac Updates option to automatically poll the update
repository for the latest version of the AV/AS vendor support package that you can make available to
Macintosh client machines during their next login session. For more information on enabling updated
AV/AS posture pack downloads to client machines, see Agent Distribution, page 9-18.
Step 10 Do one of the following:
a. Click Update to manually update your existing database with the latest Cisco checks and rules,
Agent update, Supported AV/AS Product List, and default host policies.
b. Click Clean Update to remove previous update items from the database first (including
non-customer-created checks and rules, Agent updates, and Supported AV/AS Product Lists) before
downloading the new updates. See Enable Default Allowed Hosts, page 8-9 for details.
