DHCP NAP Network Policy to exclude Windows XPx64-bit systems

Discussion DHCP NAP Network Policy to exclude Windows XPx64-bit systems

    Hi All,

    We have NAP with DHCP configured in our environment. As SP3 is not available for Windows XPx64-bit systems, its always evaluated as NAP Non-capable system. I want to exclude all 64-bit XP systems from NAP Health check. 

    Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Monika,

    Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows XP SP3 are natively NAP-capable. Computers running earlier versions of Windows or other operating systems are not natively NAP-capable. This is by design. For more information about the NAP client requirement, please have a look at: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd125301(WS.10).aspx.

    Hi Aiden,

    Thanks for the response. I am aware that Windows XPx64-bit is Non NAP-capable as no SP3 is available. But using built-in NAP Policies we can exclude certain systems from NAP Health check by defining certain conditions based on Operating system version. It will be great if somebody can guide me on the same...

    Regards,
