The NAC Profiler Collector resides on the same appliance with the Cisco's NAC Appliance Server and consists of a number of software modules that discover information about the network attached endpoints including a network mapping module (NetMap), an SNMP trap receiver/analyzer (NetTrap), a passive network analysis module (NetWatch), and an active inquiry module (NetInquiry). The major functions of the Profiler Collector are to gather all of the salient data about the endpoints communicating to/through that Clean Access Server (CAS), and to minimize and aggregate the information that is sent over the network to the Profiler Server.
