Other than the software products described in the Release Notes, we have not

the same computer. We only support interoperability issues of software products
that are mentioned in the Release Notes. The most recent version of the Release

Non-Cisco IOS AAA clients must be configured with TACACS+ and/or
•
RADIUS.
Dialin, VPN, or wireless clients must be able to connect to the applicable
•
AAA clients.
The computer running Cisco Secure ACS must be able to ping all AAA
•
clients.

•
permit communication over the ports needed to support the applicable feature
or protocol. For information about ports that Cisco Secure ACS listens to, see
