We have been able to setup pretty granular access control on our Netscalers. I can login via SSH and poke around the config as a read- only user, without fear of breaking anything. The WebUI has the same granularity. They also configured them to authenticate against the Radius servers, which makes the security guys happy. The Netscalers also have a robust Web Service API, allowing our team to write some nice management tools to keep configurations in sync across our dozens of devices. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
