Abstract
A common security database is maintained by a RADIUS server based on the attributes the RADIUS server receives through accounting packets. When the common security database has conflicting entries, for example a MAC address and/or IP address appearing at two different network devices such as switches or routers, the RADIUS server can notify the associated network access devices to take corrective action.
