I guys, I am looking forward Ethernet switches products supporting the 802.1X IEEE standard.

Any info or personnal feedback are welcome, thanx,

For information:
802.1X is combined wth 3 entities:

- 802.1X client: It's a end-user PC
Windows XP seems to implement it quite well, Linux implementation seems not stable yet
(I tested it with an authenticator on a linux PC)

- 802.1X server: Mainly a Radius that authenticate user certificats

- 802.1X authenticator: Located within a ethernet switch. It forwards client request to the Radius (at layer 2) and open(with VLAN ID, rate limiting, ...) or close end users port in function of the Radius response.
Cisco implementation seems not stable yet.
Will be implemented in next 6000 newbridge product.
I do not know any product will a full implementation of it.
