TACACS

TACACS user authentication is a system that uses user accounts to authenticate users into a dial-up
modem pool. This removes the need to keep copies of accounts on a UNIX system. TACACS does not
support TACACS+ or RADIUS.
Characteristics
• Internet Protocol(s): UDP
• Port Number(s): 49
TACACS+
TACACS+ user authentication is a system that uses user accounts to authenticate users into a dial-up
modem pool. This eliminates the need to keep copies of accounts on a UNIX system. TACACS+
supports RADIUS.

TCP

This policy serves as the default policy for all TCP connections, and other policies override it. TCP
connections that do not match your specified policies do not complete unless you also configure
TCP-UDP, TCP, or the TCP Proxy. This policy does not enable FTP, which operates only with an FTP policy.
Characteristics
• Internet Protocol(s): TCP
• Port Number(s): 0 (Any)

TCP-UDP

This policy serves as the default policy for all TCP and UDP connections, and other policies override it.
Connections that do not match specified policies in Policy Manager do not complete unless TCP-UDP,
TCP and UDP, or the TCP Proxy are also configured in Policy Manager. This policy does not enable active
mode FTP, which operates only with an FTP policy.
Characteristics
• Internet Protocol(s): TCP, UDP
• Port Number(s): TCP 0 (Any), UDP 0 (Any)

Telnet

The telnet policy is used to log in to a remote computer. It is almost the same as dial-up access, but the
connection is made across a network.
Characteristics
