I've recently been exposed to this product where I work. From what I've been told Cisco used to package it with their access servers (AS5200/5300). We have version 1.3 install for our people, but we went to the company's website and they have version 2.3 available which let's you authenticate to the access server before it dials out (if you have AAA setup for that). Basically, the software starts a telnet session with the access server on port 7xxx. The port number tells the access server which Dialer interface to use.... i.e. If you telnet to port 7001, it uses Dialer 1 to place the call. If you telnet to port 7002, it uses Dialer 2, and so forth. It really cool. We had Dialer 1 setup to accept calls and give out an IP and IPX address to callers. So we setup Dialer 2 with the settings needed for outgoing sessions. We configured the software to telnet to port 7002, and BAM! after authentication, it accepts the destination phone number(just like a good old modem would) and it dials out and connects the user. Very slick! You can purchase DialOut IP in both "per seat" or site licenses...... Here's a link to where you can find more info. http://www.tacticalsoftware.com/products.asp They have a fully functional (30-day) trial you can download. If you read their product summary, they have a list of compatible access servers, and Cisco is NOT on that list, however, I can personally assure you that it works with (at least) the 3600 series, and I don't see why it wouldn't work with any other router running Cisco IOS. Enjoy!
