Network Access Control

Network Access Control (NAC) is incoming on April 9th. If you don't have ForeScout installed or don't have an exemption, your public network machines cannot access the wired or wireless internet.

For both Mac OS X or Windows, go here:

https://software.ucsf.edu/content/nac-network-access-control/

Mac OS X

Install the 24.22 MB package

Windows

Install the 16.9 MB package

Linux

Linux computers must apply for an exception. They must be registered at:

https://ucsf.service-now.com/ess/device.  

Lookup ip address and HWaddr in Terminal
 /sbin/ifconfig

Then get an exemption request from SecureConnector Network Access Control from:

For the business justification, just state you have a Linux computer.
