It is capable of managing wired or wireless networks in an in-band or out-of-band configuration mode, and Virtual Private networks in an in-band only configuration mode. Cisco NAC Appliance is no longer in production and no longer sold as of the early 2010s. Mainstream support ending in 2015. Extended support ending in 2018.
TACACS+ includes a mechanism that can be used to obfuscate the body of each packet, while leaving the header clear-text. Moreover, it provides granular control in the form of command-by-command authorization. [6] TACACS+ has generally replaced TACACS and XTACACS in more recently built or updated networks.
