We to have been forced to look at another alternative to CCA as
well. We have been
using it in an in-band setup an wish to move to an out-of-band solution.
We¹re looking
at others , Impulse Mirage Bradford , right now hoping to have something
in place by
summer session so we can have it on line and ring out any problems that
may come up
before the fall session starts.
We found this site to be of help in our investigation of a NAC
solution.

We've moved from CCA to Impulse SafeConnect, and are quite happy. It may
not fit your needs (it's not a vlan-switching system like many others), but
we've actually received calls from students just to thank us for changing!

Yes, we bought our hardware about 3 years ago, based on the equivalents to
the appliance as well. I actually need to make some decisions this year
(next 3 or 4 months) on if we are keeping Cisco's NAC, or something else. I
know Symantc and Microsoft have something similar, but haven't had a chance
to look at anything yet. Any suggestions from the gallery on alternatives?

We bought HP DL360 G5 chassis specifying them to be Identical to the Cisco
Hardware about 2 years ago. Now they are great paper weights. Cisco Offered
a Huge discount if we bought the new appliances in 30 days. We are now
planning to re-evaluate the CCA system next year, we may or may not keep it.
Even with Maintenance on the software we would have to buy all new..... I
think Cisco did a boo-boo on this one.
