Problem:

• Can not assign a NAM Rule to a “Builtin” group
• Builtin groups not available in NAM.

Fact:

• Network Access Manager
• Network Director v2.0
• EMS
• Network Access Manager 1.2
• 3C15510
• NAM
• Builtin Group
• Standard group

Cause: Due to a restriction within Microsoft Active Directory it is not possible to assign Network Access Manager Rules to a “Builtin” group such as the “Administrators” group or the “Users” group.

Fix: Therefore to associate members of the “Builtin” groups with a NAM Rule you must use the Microsoft Active Directory Users and Computers tool to first create a security group and then make the builtin group a member of the newly created group. Then assign the appropriate NAM Rule to the newly created group.
