Dave Why not rather restrict DHCP to an allowed list of MAC addresses? And lock a specific port onto a specific MAC address or if you have too many users that are mobile (plug into many different ports) use EAP or 802.1x authentication from the switch to a Radius server and block things that way. Most modern switches will allow this.

Basically, we have your standard client network with DHCP. Internet access is restricted to authenticated users, and so are the file shares. However, we've had a few instances where people just plug in their personal laptops which makes me very worried... Any thoughts/suggestions as to how I can monitor such events in real time? Thanks, -Dave
