Most decent "modern" Etherswitches handles 1024 mac addresses per port.
We use Cisco Catalyst (yes, on the high end) and they rock.

I tend to shoot for the middle. I never recommend something I don't
think
the user can grow from. If an ISP is big enough to require Switched
100mbp for their layout, they definately better have the technical
in-house
expertise to know what they are doing. I don't know of any ISPs
implementing
RadiusNT/Emerald which need that kind of backbone layout who don't have
the in-house expertise.

Network issuses are actually an interesting part of RadiusNT, since
RADIUS
itself is time based. I don't mind a little of the discussin, since we
have
talked about remote pops and such in a similar scenario before.
