MAC notification traps are also a valid method!

I thought it was all about end station traffic monitoring.

Definitely Link traps! That's how it works.

FortiNAC uses RADIUS for MAC address info.

MAC notification traps might be the answer, but I have a nagging feeling that RADIUS could also play a role in this process.

End station traffic monitoring sounds familiar, and I feel like it could be a way to gather MAC addresses, but I need to double-check.

I remember practicing a question about link traps, but I can't recall if they specifically relate to MAC address info.

I think FortiNAC uses RADIUS for authentication, but I'm not entirely sure if it also retrieves MAC addresses that way.

I've worked with RADIUS and MAC notification traps before, so those options seem most relevant to me.

Okay, let me see... I think the key is understanding how FortiNAC integrates with the wireless network, so I'll focus on that.

Hmm, I'm not too familiar with FortiNAC, so I'm a bit unsure about the best approach here.

You know, they should just make FortiNAC connect to the Matrix and download the MAC address information directly. Efficiency at its finest!

I bet FortiNAC just has a guy with a notebook walking around the office, jotting down MAC addresses as he sees them. Old-school, but it gets the job done!

I'm going with A, RADIUS. FortiNAC must be integrated with the RADIUS server to get information about connecting devices.

Hmm, C, End station traffic monitoring, could also work. FortiNAC might be able to analyze network traffic to identify new MAC addresses.

D, MAC notification traps, seems more likely to me. FortiNAC probably uses SNMP to get notified whenever a new device connects to the network.

I think option B, Link traps, is the correct answer here. FortiNAC needs to monitor the network for new device connections, and link traps are a good way to do that.
