    Question Network access control

    Hi all. I'm looking for some ideas on how to best control device access to the network. What are some good ways to keep unwanted devices from being able to connect to a production network? Also, what are some good ways to keep excessive traffic suddenly coming from a device that's gone bad (like a NIC) from taking down a network?

    Obviously very strict switch port provisioning could be used, but what else? What about NAC or NAP? Anything else?
