If you don't have a reason to believe they *do* i.e. docs saying so, they almost certainly don't. > Seems strange that their enterprise products don't support something as > basic as this, specially when the RFC was published in 2003. It's annoying but it's not strange. A lot of vendors don't even bother with full and complete radius auth/acct support - why go for PoD? For wired switches, you might try setting the ifMauAutoNegRestart (described in RFC 2668) to "1" which on quite a few switches will drop the physical link and as a byproduct cause authentication to restart (which, if you've now banned this person, is a good thing). This has the dual advantage that it causes windows boxes to re-lease their IPs by DHCP, which is valuable if you've moved them into a walled garden network. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
