True, but I've added it to our Cisco ACS server boxes so at least didn't
need more hardware. A couple of models (DSR2161 certainly) have
alternative firmware available on the Dell site which removes the
requirement for the authentication server, but most of the access
control goes with it.=20

And (last time I looked, at least) they required an expensive,
proprietary, Windows-only authentication server (DSView) in addition to
the client software licenses and hardware costs.
