Which two protocols are used by an administrator for authentication and configuration on access points? (Choose two.)
Which two protocols are used by an administrator for authentication and configuration on access points? (Choose two.)
RADIUS and TACACS+ are the correct protocols used by an administrator for authentication and configuration on access points. RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is commonly used for authenticating users in wireless networks and controlling access through access points. TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus), developed by Cisco, provides detailed accounting, authorization, and authentication services for network infrastructure devices, including access points. These protocols are designed specifically to handle the authentication and configuration tasks required by network administrators.

Eazy Question
the correct answer is B and E Reference: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/7-6/configuration-guide/b_cg76/b_cg76_chapter_01101000.pdf
B and D are correct.
B & D are correct
After revision i found this, TACACS+ is primarily used for centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) services in network infrastructure devices like routers, switches, and firewalls but it´s not typically utilized specifically for access points. So i think B & E are correct, read my other comment.
it seems B and E is correct answers. Can someone explain this in detail?
BE is correct. as yousef_feras said
Option E (802.1x) is a port-based authentication protocol commonly used for controlling access to network ports, including those on access points, but it is not typically used for configuring access points; instead, it's used to control access to the network through them.
802.1x: provides an authentication mechanism to devices wishing to attach to a LAN or WLAN but is not used directly for administrative configuration.
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service): RADIUS is a networking protocol that provides centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting for users who connect and use a network service. It is commonly used for authenticating users in wireless networks and can be used to control access to the network through access points. TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus): TACACS+ is a protocol developed by Cisco that provides detailed accounting, authorization, and authentication (AAA) services. It is commonly used to manage users' access to network devices like routers, switches, and access points. It provides more granular control compared to RADIUS, especially in command authorization.
B & E are correct 802.1X defines the workings of port-based Network Access Control. It’s a standard for defining authentication for clients that need to attach to the network through a wired switch or a wireless access point. The purpose of this standard is to identify a reliable and universal way for clients to establish their identity and their right to be on a network. This is done through authentication to a network device using a central AAA security server or RADIUS server to support the authentication. https://www.auvik.com/franklyit/blog/802-1x-authentication/
As you can read 802.1x is a STANDARD the protocol is called EAP Extensible Authentication Protocol , the questions is what two protocols . From this list it's only Radius and TACAS+
