Overview
Note Cisco Catalyst 3850 switches are supported starting from Cisco NAC Appliance
Release 4.9(4).
Supported 3750 service modules for Cisco 2800/3800 Integrated Services Routers (ISR) include:
– NME-16ES-1G
– NME-16ES-1G-P
– NME-X-23ES-1G
– NME-X-23ES-1G-P
– NME-XD-24ES-1S-P
– NME-XD-48ES-2S-P
Note The support for Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers
(NME-NAC-K9) has been removed from Cisco NAC Appliance Release 4.9(4).
• Your Cisco NAC Appliance product license must enable OOB.
Note • With IOS release 12.2.25(SEG) for CE500, MAC notification SNMP traps are supported on all
Smartport roles (including DESKTOP and IPPHONE roles). After upgrading to 12.2.25(SEG),
customers can configure MAC notification for CE500 under OOB Management > Devices > List
> Config [Switch IP] > Config > Advanced on the CAM. For Cisco NAC Appliance 3.6.2, 3.6.3,
4.0.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2, CE500 supports linkup/linkdown SNMP notifications by default and the
“OTHER role” warning message can be ignored when changing to MAC notification traps. In later
Cisco NAC Appliance releases, this warning message is removed and the default control method for
CE500 is MAC notification traps.
• If running an IOS version earlier than 12.2(25) SEG, the CE500 switch ports must be assigned to
the OTHER role (not Desktop or IP phone) on the switch's Smartports configuration; otherwise,
MAC notification is not sent.
Note Cisco NAC Appliance OOB supports Cisco Catalyst 3750 StackWise technology. With stacks, when
MAC notification is used and there are more than 252 ports on the stack, MAC notification cannot be
set/unset for the 252nd port using the CAM. There are two workarounds: 1) Use linkup/linkdown SNMP
notifications only. 2) If using MAC notification, do not use the 252nd port and ignore the error; other
ports will work fine.
Clusters are not supported.

Cisco NAC Appliance.
