In FortiNAC, logical networks are an integral part of device management and network segmentation. These logical networks are defined and appear within the model configuration of each infrastructure device that is modeled in the topology tree. The configuration allows for the assignment of unique names and, optionally, descriptions to each logical network, thereby clarifying their purpose or use within the network infrastructure.

A. Manual Polling: This is when an administrator or network operator initiates a poll manually to gather information or check the status of the network devices. This can be done for immediate troubleshooting or assessment.

B. Scheduled Poll Timings: Network management systems often have the capability to schedule regular polls of devices to check their status or monitor their performance. These scheduled polls can be set at regular intervals (such as every few minutes, hours, or daily) depending on the requirements of the network.

E. Linkup and Linkdown Traps: SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) traps, like Linkup and Linkdown, are automated notifications sent from network devices to a management system. A Linkup trap indicates that a particular interface has become active (up), while a Linkdown trap indicates that an interface has become inactive (down). These traps can trigger Layer 2 polling to ascertain the current status of network interfaces and devices.

In a wireless integration, FortiNAC uses RADIUS to obtain connecting MAC address information. This includes RADIUS requests to FortiNAC and subsequent RADIUS responses from FortiNAC to the requesting device​
