NAP enforces health policies by inspecting and assessing the health of client computers, restricting network access when
client computers are noncompliant with health policy, and remediating noncompliant client computers to bring them into
compliance with health policy before they are granted full network access. NAP enforces health policies on client computers
that are attempting to connect to a network; NAP also provides ongoing health compliance enforcement while a client
computer is connected to a network.
