  6. Gotchas – Things to watch out for • Mac clients are OS-Specific. • Too new a client won’t work with too old an operating system and vice-versa • Particularly change from 10.0 to 10.1 to 10.2 • Support for Linux 2.6 Kernels only from version 4.0.4B. • Tighter Cisco licensing restrictions. • Updates are regular – watch the CISCO website.

  7. Future Developments • Certificate-based authentication • See DCOCE project • Delivery of key services through Portal so VPN demand reduces
