Yes, that's pretty normal. Although many linux distros come with some
preparation: the automounter daemon. Open an xterm an type "man amd",
that should show you the way. If linux does mount any disk or media
automatically, it uses amd.

Given you're using network analyzer hardware your users seem to be
trained professionals. So I'd suggest you to train them some more to get
their fingers of that nasty reset button ans learn how to mount a
floppy.
Anyways, if users should be allowed to do so, the opsys has to be
prepared (at least by setting the the mount points owner and rights).
But that's a FAQ and the internet is full of answers ...
HTH,
