Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services Engine (SISE) — Question 103

What are two benefits of TACACS+ versus RADIUS for device administration? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. TACACS+ has command authorization, and RADIUS does not.
• B. TACACS+ uses UDP, and RADIUS uses TCP.
• C. TACACS+ supports 802.1X, and RADIUS supports MAB.
• D. TACACS+ provides the service type, and RADIUS does not.
• E. TACACS+ encrypts the whole payload, and RADIUS encrypts only the password.

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

The correct answers are A and E because TACACS+ does indeed provide command authorization, offering finer control over user actions, which RADIUS does not support. Additionally, TACACS+ ensures that the entire payload is encrypted, whereas RADIUS only encrypts the password, making TACACS+ a more secure option for device administration.
