Command Usage
• RADIUS uses UDP while TACACS+ uses TCP. UDP only offers best
effort delivery, while TCP offers a connection-oriented transport.
Also, note that RADIUS encrypts only the password in the
access-request packet from the client to the server, while TACACS+
encrypts the entire body of the packet.
• RADIUS and TACACS+ logon authentication assigns a specific
privilege level for each user name and password pair. The user name,
password, and privilege level must be configured on the authentication
server.
