To the surprise of no one who read the comments to my earlier post, it is now official that Nortel was the purchaser of Identity Engines’ IP assets. They updated the IDE homepage with a short message and contact info for more information. Given that they are inviting IDE customers to contact Nortel’s account teams, I’m hopeful that they’ll be providing some ongoing support options to existing IDE customers. Have any IDE customers contacted Nortel yet? What was the result?

Yes, it was Nortel.
Wednesday, January 28th, 2009802.1X Update for Cat 6500
Friday, January 16th, 2009Just a quick 802.1X update that some folks may have missed. There is a new IOS release for the 6500: 12.2.33 SXI (gotta love our naming scheme). It provides some very nice improvements for wired 802.1X rollouts. Network World wrote up the basics and even provides some config examples; take a look. When this hits the other Cisco switch platforms I’ll be sure to provide another update.
