supporting NADs in ACS and ISE

[jinapark]

Hi guys, 

I'm wondering why there’s different numbers for supporting NADs between ISE and ACS (3k vs 10k), even though they use the same hardware and TACACS protocol. Of course, it's because of different software, but is there any idea for explaining about it in detail for the partners and customers?

Jina, ACS and ISE is different in terms of how the resources are managed due to differences in the application. We are working to close the gap between the ACS and ISE in the future releases of ISE including # of NAD support. Currently ISE supports 30k NADs.
