Does the Windows L2TP client (XP is what we run) support access prior to login?
Our firewall does support IPSec, and should support L2TP, though I'd ahve to verify that. I would love to see the CLI info for the WAPs. I'm not knowledgeable enough on the networking to speak to 802.1x or 802.1q - I vaguely know what they have, but have never actually worked with them. I suppose I should read up on them.
