Hi Chuck,
We at UCSC use SafeConnect. We have over 7k residential students, our
move in is similar to yours and we too are using Cisco gear. Overall, we
have been very happy with SafeConnect and have never had any problems
with the numbers of students logging in simultaneously. If your
engineer would like to talk to ours .. let me know.

One of the last concerns our network engineers have is how our single Cisco 6509 would handle the load, particularly during Move In Weekend when we have the potential for hundreds of simultaneous registrations.
