Hey fellow propeller heads, I could use some input on the following topic,

Network quarantine control.

I'm looking at possibly implementing a software based quarantine network either using AD and MS stuff or possibly a Unix solution. MS has a white paper on the subject

clicky :)

Has anyone implemented this solution or something similar? I work for a small graduate school and money is tight (unless some corporate donor would like to make a donation.. hint hint) so a hardware based solution is probably not going to happen. Also, my boss is a Unix die hard (which is totally cool since I'll enjoy the brain drain) whereas I'm the MS kinda guy.

Regardless, this sounds like an interesting solution to a real problem,especially when school is back in session and all those know it alls (aka students) trash my network ;)

Our network over here matches DHCP leases to MAC addresses. They also have "flytraps" set up to snag unauthorized computers. HOW they have said flytraps set up, I don't know.
