Hi!

Cisco CSA seems to support states and conditions for applying users:
 http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/csa/csa601/user_guide/Variables_and_States.html#wp995727

"In the System Location section, you can use the Network Interface
field to enter one or more network interface sets to create a state
condition based on system address or location or connection type.. "

Hello,I am just looking to see if anyone can provide any experiences and/or recommendations of software to be 
installed on clients that is "location aware" and can enforce certain ACL's or network policies. i.e. Symantec, 
McAfee, Cisco?

My scenario and what I am trying to do is with my users laptops, currently we do not allow them to connect to any 
public wireless networks. Ofcourse this is something that I am being pressured on allowing. We would like to be able 
to force a VPN client to load as soon as the mobile device running Windows XP connects to a public "hot spot" and if 
the VPN connection fails to disconnect the system from that network. It would be an IPSEC VPN from either Cisco or 
Juniper.

Thank you!
