I am interested in knowing how other academic institutions authenticate their
wireless users, particularly for Macintosh clients.

At Ithaca College, we currently require wireless users to authenticate via an
SSL VPN device (firepass from F5 Networks).  This allows us to see who is using
the wireless network (via the logs) and provides a level of security for the
users as well.  This solution works very well for Windows clients but Macintosh
clients have experienced a number of problems.  We have been working with F5’s
technical support on the Mac problems for quite some time.

Is there an alternative that we could look at?  Do other institutions support
SSL VPN for Macintosh clients?
