Convergence and Security on the Network (Jeffery Carrell)
EAP is the layer two part, until you authenticate with EAP the port won't allow any layer three traffic.
Most VOIP phones and some network printers have built in support for 802.1x (but often only weaker EAP methods).
If you are assigning VLANs from Radius the best plan is to configure the client ports on a dead VLAN (eg. no access to anything), then once the client is authenticated it will add the port as an untagged VLAN.
If you aren't assigning VLANs from Radius then you can configure the switch to change the ports VLAN on a successful authentication.
Originally 802.1x made no provision for handing out tagged VLANs from Radius, this is now supported through RFC4675 (still not widely supported though).
You can do all the same VLAN provisioning with MAC based authorisation instead of full user/pass authentication.
Apparently WPA2 supports a non-shared key method which isn't 802.1x ... investigate!
HP Integrated Citrix XenServer on HP Proliant Servers (Chris Lynch, Brian Taylor & Aaron Olbrych)
HP has their on version of XenServer caled "HP Select"
"HP Select" integrates with Proliant virtual console so you can get "KVM" access to your VMs
"PV Guest" = paravirtualised OS (modified kernel)
"HVM Guest" = hardware-virtualised OS (non-modified kernel, requires Intel VT or AMD-V chipsets)
SMP (Server Migration Pack) v3.5 supports XenServer (physical/virtual to physical/virtual on Proliant hardwre)
