Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2

User and machine group requirements are configured by creating an Active Directory security group condition in network policy. If the NAP enforcement method is 802.1X or VPN enforcement, members of the security group can be users or computers. If the NAP enforcement method is IPsec or DHCP, members of the security group must be computers.

Membership in the local Administrators group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).
