The document discusses Cisco's Localization Toolkit. It aims to localize Cisco products for different locales by providing a wizard-like tool with a client-server architecture and product-specific plugins. It reduces licensing fees while combining user empowerment with Cisco's field-funded localization model. The toolkit utilizes SDL Passolo for software localization and GlobalSight for documentation localization.
