TACACS+ communication with Oracle Internet Directory (OID)

[a.kiprawih]

Hi,

I've few questions on TACACS+ (ACS) and RADIUS (CAR):

1. Which is the preferred communication method between TACACS+ (ACS) with OID? Is it Generic LDAP or ODBC?

Basically, the TACACS+ will just forward the AAA request from NAS to the OID.

2. If possible, will the TACACS+ support SSL, to secure the communication with OID?

3. Will Generic LDAP support any password encryption protocol?

For RADIUS, I understand that it can talk to the OID via LDAP or ODBC, but I am too sure about TACACS+.

Has anyone implement it before?

Thanks

AK
