Abstract
A system that includes a switch, a network authentication server (NAS), and a threat management server. The NAS sends a device identifier for an endpoint device to the threat management server in response to the endpoint device connecting to a port on the switch. The threat management server determines the endpoint device is present in a blacklist based on the device identifier in response to receiving the device identifier. The threat management server determines the endpoint device is blocked from one or more second ports on the switch. The threat management server blocks the endpoint device from accessing the network via the first port on the switch in response to determining the endpoint device is blocked from the one or more other ports on the switch.
