We wish to force 802.1x on all our edge switches (5500s). The catch is
that we
do not have any real control over what is connected to the network
edge. We have game console systems, old *nix machines, printers, etc.
If we force 802.1x everywhere, we would have some major push back.
I have been searching for NAT routers that would be capable of
performing an 802.1x auth on their uplink ports, much in the same way
you would configure a NAT router for PPPoE. I understand many NAT
routers can be configured to support 802.1x authentication for
associated clients, but this is not what I am looking for. I need the
NAT router to have an 802.1x supplicant, preferably capable of
EAP-PEAP.
Does anyone know of an vendor that manufactures such a device? I am
hoping to find something in the $50-$60 range. The only reason why I am
posting to this group is because we have a lot of Nortel gear, and I
did not get any response from the previous group that I posted to. If
I am posting this to the wrong group, please let me know what the
appropriate group should be. Thx.
