Cisco software ports to Linux anytime soon?

Are there any plans to port some of the Cisco management tools to Linux?

(the ones that currently are made to run on Solaris)

Thanks

No such plans.

.....any particular reason why not?

My guess: It's available through web browser anywhere. That's probably why they scrapped support for AIX and HP-UX recently.

It's a shame. Linux is an excellent platform.

Oh well, thank goodness there are already great tools like MRTG, Big Brother, Cosi, etc that work well on Linux.
