Okay, this is a personal question, but it's still going to help me learn (always up for learning something new!).
I'm looking to buy my first house in a few months, but I don't want the cost of it all. so I'm going to have a couple of lodgers. They'll pay my mortgage nicely - I've checked. However, they also present to me a bit of a security problem (nothing major on my home network but I like my privacy). I already have WPA2E security on my wireless connections, but as I'm planning on putting Ethernet ports into every room, I'd like the ability to secure them with the same security.
I have VLANable switches and will Be VLANing the guest rooms off to their own VLAN (same as with their own wireless SSID - WPA2P) as they will never authenticate to my network but the ports in the communal rooms need securing. If possible I'd like authentication on the communal room ports - if it doesn't get authentication, it gets put on another VLAN - is this possible? If it does get auth, put it on my VLAN. I understand that this is a big ask - if it can't be done then I just want the communal rooms to have full authentication - if it doesn't get authentication it doesn't get network/internet access.
Can anybody help me with setting up the NPS server for wired connections? A walkthrough would be amazing - I've already tried setting up the basic auth, but it just lets anything on the network :-P
All my Ethernet devices are Windows 8, I'm running Server 2012 Essentials which has NPS, AD, Cert Services, etc already installed.
Many thanks in advance,
Bryn
