Off the top of my head, and in no particular order: 3Com 4400, 5500 Cisco 2960, 3560/3750, 4500, 6500 Extreme X250e/X450e/8800 HP Procurve (most of them) Nortel (untested) Alacatel (untested) Foundry (untested) ...and a whole bunch more. It's a pretty common feature in any platform from the last 18 months. You really want to be looking for a few key differentiators such as: * can the device support 802.1x & mac-based fallback at the same time? * can the device authenticate >1 client on a port? * if so, can it support 802.1x for one and mac-based for another (think IP phones) * if so, can it assign separate untagged vlans to each client? * can the device assign IP ACLs from Radius replies? * can the device assign 1 untagged and >1 tagged vlans (think wlan aps) * can the device be told to let all macs in (again, wlan aps) * can the device support wake-on-lan on 802.1x unauthenticated ports? * does the device support an internal username db for fallback (think ops staff laptops while the radius servers are down during an outage) HTH - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
