The following table lists the conditions under which the Configuration Manager 2007 Network Access Protection client agent will perform a full NAP evaluation rather than use a cached statement of health (SoH). Using a cached statement of health results in faster connections, but the NAP evaluation information might be out of date. For more information about the statement of health in Configuration Manager 2007 Network Access Protection, see About the Statement of Health (SoH) in Network Access Protection.

Reference this table to help you troubleshoot unexpected delays and processing on the client, as well as understand better how Network Access Protection in Configuration Manager 2007 affects clients in production environments.

The option Force a fresh scan for each evaluation is enabled or canceled on the Evaluation tab of the Network Access Protection client agent properties, where you can also configure the NAP evaluation schedule. For more information about these options, see How to Configure NAP Evaluation Settings.
