Abstract
Automated locating and disconnection of undesired devices may include receiving a request to reroute the traffic associated with a device, receiving switch information from the switch, and using the switch information to determine a candidate reroute port based on the maximum distance from the candidate reroute port to the port coupled to the device associated with the media access control (MAC) address, presence of the candidate reroute port on the inclusion list, and absence of the candidate reroute port from the exclusion list. In addition, a command may be issued to reroute traffic associated with the candidate device to the candidate reroute port by transforming a destination of the traffic to the reroute port.
