What is TACACS? Radius?

Answer Posted / ramganesh1982

TACACS : Terminal Access Control Access control Server

TACACS Vs Radius

1) TACACS is an implementation of CISCO [proprietory]
Radius in non proprietory

2) AAA [Authentication,Authorization,Accounting] can be
handled separately in TACACS
Radius does Authentication+Authorization in a single step
& can perform Accounting separately.

3) TACACS uses TCP [Forgot the port numbers]
Radius uses UDP

These 3 major differences are expected at the least ! i
hope so !

Hi I have 10+ years of telecom application development experience ( telecom billing product -call control (ISUP/INAP/CAMEL call handling), short message routing application, telecom tools development). I am very strong in C++/Unix , core java and advanced oops design. Recently I have undergone a training in 3G mobile protocol developement. I have very good knowledge about WCDMA, its various layers and gone through 3GPP technical specs. Now I am looking for 3G mobile development opportunities. I am finding very difficult to get it, as I don't have the relevant experiences on 3G development. Please advice me on this to enter into mobile protocol development.
