The original problem with AAC is that you could not put an AG in front of it and expect to be able to do end point scanning. 4.0 only supported CSG as the remote access mechanism. With 4.2, AAC now supports end point scanning with AG 4.2. AAC 4.2 no longer works with CSG. When you integrate an AG with AAC 4.2, AAC 4.2 also takes over the administration of the AG. AAC 4.2 does work standalone but the only way to get end point scanning to work remotely is by integrating AG 4.2. In my opinion, they never should have released AAC until it was able to run end point scanning on the AG. Releasing it with CSG support (4.0 only) is confusing everybody. _____ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tom Howarth Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2006 1:06 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: AG 4.2 still does not have AAC? No AAC is a costed extra that involves the use of a separate server. You can purchase the Access Gateway Enterprise option this includes both CAG licences and AAC licenses at a discount, All AAC has the functionality of MSAM plus the added functionality of border control. However, I am fairly certain that it cannot be used in isolation or in conjunction with CSG as MSAM was.

Can someone explain this for me. I have a demo AG (Access Gateway) and upgraded it to version 4.2 expecting to see all the AAC (Advanced Access Controls) available. Instead I see a few AAC options and a setting to point to a AAC server. This makes me thing that AAC is not truly integrated onto AG 4.2 as I thought it was going to be. My understanding was that the AAG option was going to be on the AG in the future. I'm likely just not understanding something but if someone can explain this I would be most thankful.
