We didn't do security tests on Clean Access yet.

What I mean by security holes relates to how easy
it is to go around the system for an not so average user.
Those attacks only occur when MAC addresses are used
as the main way of authentication. Not 802.1x.

Philippe,

I'm curious as to the major security holes. Was Cisco Clean Access (We are currently in a pilot phase) one of your test devices?

Thanks, Bob

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] NAC polling: Wired AND Wireless

All,

UTK is in the midst of a network redesign.
A big part of it involves Network Access Control.

Is anyone out there with a comparable size campus, or bigger,
(26,000 student, 5000 Fac/Staff), implementing a commercial NAC system
for ALL users  and all networks (Wired and Wireless).

We are evaluating products. They work somewhat fine during the  pilot
(with major security holes ),
but we have this really strong hunch that those products will not size
well!

Any input is welcome,
(except sales pitch ;-)

Thank you,

Philippe Hanset

p.s.: Are you doing 802.1x on Wired?
