Can anyone provide opinions about Wheelgroups NetRanger product?

I am familiar with the basics of the product but would like to hear some other
opinions.

For those not familiar, NetRanger is a UNIX based device that sits on a network
segment running in promiscuous mode capturing all TCP/IP traffic.  It analyzies
the packet headers and payload for known "attacks" and then sends out
appropriate alarms, RESETS, etc.
