802.1X support on this sub-$200 "web-managed smart switch" appears to be EAP or 
"guest VLAN." If EAP fails, port goes to a guest VLAN configured on the switch, 
not in PF. No place for MAC registration.

I'm surprised that port security is so hard to code for, but if I can't get the 
device to send port security violation traps at all, it doesn't matter. What 
about link up/down traps? That should be all standard MIBs.

I didn't see a cheap D-Link that has both Power over Ethernet and an SFP port 
(which we need for media conversion to fibre). I'll look again.

I'm also demoing an HP V-series (ex-3Com) unit that might have better PF 
support, but it's much larger, nearly the size of a standard 48-port switch 
despite having only 8 1GT+1 SFP ports.
