Change Your Access Control, Not Your Network Juniper Networks realizes that the enterprise network is never static. An access control solution must be granular enough to provide the controls needed, but flexible enough to accommodate changing infrastructure and deployments. In addition, the purpose of access control itself can change. As an example, UAC might initially be deployed to provide an additional layer of access control for your wireless LAN (WLAN) but over time might be used to check the endpoint security state of devices attempting to access the wired network to ensure compliance...
