We're starting to see a number of freeloaders on our network so it is time
to tighten security.  I'm considering use the Internal Mac Authorization
feature to get started.

I read the aPPO documentation section on this subject.  It is not clear what
set of Mac addresses need to be entered into the aPPO.  Let's say you enter
the Mac addresses of all the client devices on the network (aBOs in our
case).  This should allow communication between the aPPO and the aBOs.  I
hope this will also allow communications with the client PCs that are
attached to the wired side of the aBOs.  Is this in fact the case?

I can't imaging using Internal Mac Authorization if you need to specify the
Mac address of each PC attached to the wired side of the aBOs.  It would
really be a hassle keeping the table up-to-date each time a client buys a
new PC -or- a guest attaches to a client network while staying overnight.

Please help me understand how this feature works in the aPPO.

Thanks, Greg
