And there is a point of securing a network.
Using registered MAC addresses will be a way to prevent unallowed network
access by laptops and other unauthorised computers.
I'm just discussing this with a guy who knows the legal situation here in
lower saxony better than I do. He's resposible for a couple of Schools in my
region and is working in the computer ceter at our University here.
He also told me that there is a must to do so in lower saxony, what he didn't
