Answer:RADIUS is based on an open standard and is described in RFC 2058 and 2059. TACACS+ is a Cisco proprietary protocol that is not supported on all manufacturers' devices. If the devices support TACACS+, then use it. If not, use RADIUS.
Question:What are the main differences between RADIUS and TACACS+?
Answer:There are numerous differences between RADIUS and TACACS+. One main difference is that RADIUS is open source and TACACS+ is Cisco proprietary. TACACS+ generally has more features and is considered more secure.
