Rajesh:
How will this fit with Cisco's recent acquisition of Meetinghouse? MH
didn't have a Mac client, so it was pretty useless for higher ed. Does a
Mac version of CCA mean that there will be a Mac version for Cisco
Secure Services Client?
Thanks

Greg,
View this first release of a Mac OS agent as a starting point. Yes,
with the first release, it does only authentication and yes, it mainly
helps from an end-user experience standpoint (i.e. it will pop-up when
the CAS is discovered and users will be able to login without opening
a
browser).
However, our intent is to add posture assessment and remediation as
well
in phases. So, this is just a starting point.
HTH,
Rajesh.

Subject: Re: MAC OS X Agent
Just curious, what does an auth agent add for Mac? Currently our Macs
and Linux boxes authenticate with the web page, I guess the only added
value is that a user with these OS do not have to open a browser to
say
run an email client. Is this correct, or is there another advantage
of
an auth only agent that I'm missing?
Thanks,
Greg
