Not trying to make excuses for SKS but I am still looking for some technical help from your background in IT networking infrastruture.

While TPM is supported in many devices, most vendors don't offer adequate instruction on how to use it, Sprague said. "There's no technical guide for using TPM as a token on a Cisco or Juniper switch," he observed. "We are having to build templates that walk users through [implementation], step by step."

So I still don't understand. Let's say a client device on the network is configured using it's TPM as a virtual smart card and this device requests access, is there some TPM-based interface in e.g. a network switch required?

Cisco is finally in the TCG so I assume if they need to provide TPM-friendly interfaces they are now doing so.

Or part of the challenge for Wave has been building interfaces across the multitude of networking equipment?
