802.1X authentication would work but requires a Certificate Authority, IAS
server, and compliant operating systems. The link below explains how this
can be done.

Another option is to use switches that can protect the network based on mac
addresses. This is not as secure as 802.1X but will prevent the average user
from gaining access by filtering switch ports to allow only certain mac
addresses. Even the lower end HP Procurve switches can do mac filtering for
example and have a "learning" mode to greatly reduce the need to manually
configure mac address tables. My HP2512 switch also can do port isolation
where you can configure ports on switches can access a common port such as
an internet gateway but not each other.--- Steve
