ASA 5585-X TACACS+/RADIUS Server

[scornish1]

All,

Can the ASA 5585-X's act as a AAA TACACS+ and/or RADIUS server for network infrastructure devices?

I've used Cisco Secure ACS for TACACS and RADIUS AAA..

My client has ordered a bunch of them.   They don't have an AAA solution and were just told they will need to implement AAA on network infrastructure devices.

Thanks for any information.

No, it can't. However Microsoft NPS is part of windows server o/s, so you could use that for radius (no tacacs+)

Ok, thanks Jan.

Adding to Jan's correct answer.

The current Cisco RADIUS offerings are either the ACS product (RADIUS and TACACS+) or Identity Services Engine (ISE - RADIUS only). Both are offered in both appliance and VM formats.

Beside NPS on Windows server, there are also open source projects of both RADIUS and TACACS servers available.
