It doesn’t in fact give you assurance that the actual user is connecting. It 
just tells you what credentials the device happens to have. I’ve run into a 
number of cases where we've contacted a user based on the device’s 
authentication only to find out that it belongs to someone else, but the auth’d 
user helped them set it up. 

Oh, and if you are using bandwidth management, it’s worth talking to legal 
about the implications under the DMCA. It may in fact erase your ISP immunity 
for student data transiting your network.
