Bump in the wire solution on 6500 switch

[ATCal]

Hi,

My company is evaluating a "bump in the wire" security solution.
Our problem is with how to integrate it with our switch. The product needs to go in between (intercept the wire) the users and the servers. However, we have a mixture of users and servers on our 6509. Is there any way to segment the blades into almost different switches? We don't want to have to buy another switch to separate the users from the servers.
Thanks for your help.

Is VRF-lite a software or feature option to the switch? Is there additional expense for it?"


Its a software feature already included in the IOS for a Sup 720. If you use a different SUP you will have to verify the rev of code.
