Hi John, The only way I know to prevent this is to use 802.1X as the authentication mechanism (on wired and wireless). The user would then need to insert valid credentials to gain network access. Even if an evil user spoof a MAC address, he won't be able to login without valid credentials.
I hope it does answer your question.
