Partial solutions

3. There are several common scenarios in which Cisco's proposal could never work. For example: consider a contractor working in a client's networking environment.

- If an employer implemented Cisco's VPN solution, employees would probably be cut off from their employer's network. The majority of host clients' security policies would not allow them to configure their PCs for external VPN operation required by another company.

- Even both employer and client were to implement Cisco's VPN solution in their respective networks, neither's security policies would permit them to establish mutual trust.

There's no reason proper use of profiles or dual boot solutions cannot fix this.
