We are looking at locking down access to our internal network. We want each device, not just user, authenticated to the network. I would prefer not to have to put a mac-address filter on each of my switches, we have over 200 of them. Is there a way for 802.1x to authenticate a device either with a software token, a certificate, or other means. I would prefer for the switch port authentication to be centrally managed rather than managed individually by each switch.
Thanks in advance for your help.
