Today I'm diving in to the world of network access control! Being able to authenticate network devies plugged in to your switches is a great way to improve network security without resorting to unplugging or disabling every unused port on yout equipment. Now every switch port is universal, and will enable on demand based on what is plugged in. While I couldn't go through the complete authorization part of the setup (mapping devices to VLANs), I'm planning on making a future video for that step.
