One way to stop people from plugging in hubs and or unauthorized work
stations (at least in Cisco land) is to enable port security. You can
be a real control freak and set static mac address in the cam (I think
it is the cam though I might mistaken) table. Point of the matter is if
you really are worried about people adding nodes to your net you might
want to consider that.
Cheers all,

Hi everyone,
does anyone know of any kind of software that detects unauthorised
additional hosts placed on the network (for instance by a user ) or
detects
the addition of desktop modems onto pc's (and thereby enabling holes in
the
network security). ?
thanks.
