Looks like it requires 4.8.0.1 for version...

Wonder when it will be out?

We heard 4.9 was scheduled for May release...but we're looking at Impulse, 
Bradford, Enterasys, Avenda among others...

After seeing Cisco's plan for NAC and ACS, we're wondering if we stay Cisco and 
start to deploy 802.1X wired and wireless...

Anyone else using 802.1X with Cisco ACS and Cisco infrastructure?  We bought an 
1121 appliance as part of our infrastructure upgrade of 2960'sS and 4500R+E 
core.  What we're told is that the new ISE (Identity Services Engine) will run 
on the 1121 and that ISE will also run on the 33x5 appliances.  Cisco might be 
our cheapest option (who would ever think that?) since we can use a trade-up 
program to move away from our 3140 CAS/CAM to 3355 CAS/CAM and then upgrade 
those to ISE this summer.  What I'm told is that we could then have 3 ISE 
boxes...one for Identity (ACS), one for In-band, and one for Out-of-band if 
we'd like.  Or, 2 for Identity and 1 for Out-of-band...basically whatever we 
want but I'm curious to see what the licensing will be/cost since what I saw 
was that ISE would have a base license for ACS and Guest and Advanced license 
would include NAC CAS/CAM, profiler, etc...

Our 3140's go EOL in 2011 so we will be deploying something this summer before 
students move back in August.  Probably decision 60% Cisco and 40% Impulse 
right now...Not sure I'm sold on writing ACL's and reading Netflow data 
constantly.  Plus, I heard that Impulse is really about the only NAC vendor not 
embracing 802.1X.  Apparently, Juniper, Symantec, Avenda, Bradford among many 
more that are moving towards or already using 802.1X...
