Anyone tried SmartConnect / VMready on IBM BladeCenters

Hi

I noticed that IBM is selling a s/w upgrade to their BNT 1/10G Ethernet switch that has a technology called VMready. It can track Virtual Machines as they migrate in the network and would allow configuring network settings for each Virtual Machine.

I'm interested in this and wonder if others have tried it and if it could solve the concerns with network security when VMs migrate.
