Abstract
A device may include an interface to send authentication information to a plug-in, where the authentication information is related to a client device. The interface may send a policy identifier to the plug-in, where the policy identifier identifies a policy, and may receive a policy result from the plug-in, where the policy result is produced using the authentication information and a policy requirement identified by the policy identifier, and where the policy result identifies whether the client device complies with the policy.
