<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Yes, this is our actual configuration and it works very well, but I think that with the long run, a database that contains all MAC address can become very difficult to manage.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">But if it' s the only solution, I will make with.</font><br>

> I'm now sure that the best way for us is MAC Address filtering.<br>
<br>
thats a way of doing the 'host' part. the user can then be authenticated<br>
by an EAP method. <br>
<br>
ie authorization stage can check the calling-station-id (MAC address) and,<br>
if not known, just reject. then, if known carry on to the user authentication<br>
by 802.1X<br>
<br>
as already said, you have to know what you want and the technologies available<br>
