Yes, ACS supports TACACS+ or Radius on the front-end and many different user databases such as NT domain on the back-end.
Yes, PIX is a TACACS+ client. Yes, the protocol is TACACS+ between PIX and ACS. You could call the PIX a NAS, but typically NAS refers to some sort of dial-in device, so calling the PIX a NAS might confuse some people. -Kent -----Original Message----- From: John Green [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 9:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: TACACS+ [7:39297] is the Cisco Secure ACS server a TACAS+ server ? ie the pix is acting as a tacas+ client to the ACS server ? is that correct ? if yes, then the protocol for user authentication and later access-control between the pix and ACS server called as TACAS+ protocol ? is this correct ? lastly if pix is our permiter firewall and set for aaa, then can we say that the pix is also a NAS, network access server ? would that be correct to say, atleast in this scenario where users connect to pix to say access a web server behind or protected by the pix. > ""Kent Hundley"" wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > IMO, the best way to study TACACS+ is to download > the free TACACS+ server > > from Cisco, install it on Linux and play around > with it.
