Configure NAP Tracing

Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2012

You can use the NAP Client Configuration snap-in to configure Network Access Protection (NAP) tracing. Tracing records NAP events in a log file and is useful for troubleshooting and maintenance. You can also use tracing logs to evaluate the health and security of your network. You can configure three levels of tracing: Basic, Advanced, and Debug.

By default, NAP tracing is disabled, which means that no NAP events are recorded in the NAP tracing log files.

When to perform this task

You should enable NAP tracing when:

  • You are troubleshooting NAP problems.

  • You want to evaluate the overall health and security of the computers in your organization.

To complete this task, perform the following procedures:

Enable and Disable NAP Tracing

Specify Level of Detail in the NAP Trace Log
