Michael,
Check whether or not you are actually encrypting your sessions. Cisco does
not support MMPE w/ the Secure ACS. MPPE password hash's are required for
the PPTP to encrypt.

I'm not David. But we used Cisco Secure RADIUS with the
Contivity. The two worked well together. Even had to have
it spit back some specific organizational unit information to
Contivity in order to restrict who was VPN enabled and who
just had direct RAS access. -Michael

David,
Question for you:
When you installed the Contivity with PPTP, did you use an external RADIUS
server? If so who's?

We deployed the Contivity switch for a client and have found that it
is straightforward to install and configure and seems to provide
adequate throughput although we have not stressed it with a large
number of clients.
I cannot speak to its interopeability with other IPSEC
implementations, but it supports PPTP easily working with Microsoft
clients.
