The paper that has been published here: https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3282283 proposes a consensus algorithm based on distributed voting process in which it claims that it would be possible to detect (and not prevent) MAC address change using Cisco Port Security in a crypto-currency network like Bitcoin network, because this proposed idea is based on one-machine-one-vote and so it is important to detect MAC address change in a Bitcoin-like network.



Do you think it is practicable to detect MAC address change in a network like Bitcoin network?



I mean assume a node is connected to a network like the Bitcoin network (en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Network), then if this node changes its MAC address, is it possible to notify the rest of Bitcoin network, if Bitcoin network uses Cisco Port Security configuration for detecting MAC address change? Thank you



P.S. MAC address change detection using Cisco Port Security is described here: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst4000/8-2glx/configuration/guide/sec_port.pdf and here: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/sw/4_1/nx-os/security/configuration/guide/sec_nx-os-cfg/sec_portsec.pdf
