Figure 10-16 Properties
About—Displays the version of the Cisco NAC Agent.
Exit—Exits the application, removes the Cisco NAC Agent icon on the taskbar, and automatically
logs off the users in both In-Band and Out-of-Band mode. The users in Out-of-Band mode are
logged off only when the OOB Logoff feature has been enabled through the CAM web console.
Note If Popup Login Window is disabled on the taskbar menu, the user can always right-click the Agent icon
from the system tray and select Login to bring up the login dialog.
Windows 8 Metro and Metro App Support —Toast Notifications
In NAC Agent scenarios where the user does not get network access, like “Remediation Failed” or
“Network Access expired”, the Agent displays the following message:
Network not available, Click "OK" to continue" toast notification
To get more details, you can select the toast and you will be redirected to Desktop mode and the NAC
agent dialog is displayed.
Toast Notification is displayed for all positive recommended actions that the user needs to perform to
gain network access. The following are some examples:
• For Network Acceptance policy, toast will be displayed as: “Click Accept to gain network access”
• For Agent/Compliance Module Upgrade, toast will be displayed as: “Click OK to Upgrade/Update”
• In the “user logged out” event, when “Auto Close” option for Logoff is not enabled in CAM, toast
notification is provided. This toast enables the users to know that they have been logged out and that
they need to login again to get network access.
