Cisco Gurus, I have a question.

I was wondering if anyone has worked with these before. What kind of uses do they have? I also was wondering if anyone had an idea on how much they are worth. Thanks.

list price is ~$25K, it is slated to go bye-bye shortly.

in essence what is does is assign users to a specific VLAN and then maintains that assignment regardless of where on the network that user plugs. This rather than assigning a specific port to a specific VLAN. It is useful if you have a workforce that moves around quite a bit and may not necessarily attach to the network thru the same switch much less the same port.
