Chris, Ignore the MS bashers.
There is at least a statement of direction that they will work with MS active directory. I don't know how far along it is. The idea is that when a user logs in the switch will setup the vlan on the port from the users active directory profile. For companies with users on MS platforms (and there are a few out there) this will have some big advantages. Vlan setup will get much easier and vlans will be much more secure. Can any Cisco people out there give us an idea on how far away this is? >From: "Wow" >Reply-To: "Wow" >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: Cisco Devices in MS Active Directory [7:40095] >Date: Mon, 1 Apr 2002 21:29:27 -0500 > >brilliant > >""Patrick Ramsey"" wrote in message >[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > Do you really want to trust the management of your core equipment to > > anything microsoft puts out? > > > > >>> "Mann, Chris" 04/01/02 04:05PM >>> > > Can Cisco routers and switches be managed at all from with Microsoft > > Active Directory, or some Active Directory snap-in?
