Hi,

Can anyone recommend a device that will do MAC Address Authentication before allowing a user/computer to connect to the network.
Possible EAPOL will help you. Ask google more about it, but as I know you need a "smart" switch with EAPOL support (Nortel BayStack 450 e.g.), RADIUS server (freeradius e.g). Windows XP has buil-in EAPOL client to auth.
Hope it helps.
