D) TACACS? Really? I thought that was more for router and switch management, not endpoint authentication.

I'm going with A) RADIUS. That's the standard authentication protocol in most network setups, right?

But RADIUS is commonly used for network access authentication, so I still think it's the right choice.

C) MAB seems more likely. I've heard that's the protocol used for device-based authentication on switches.

I think it's B) EAP. Isn't that the protocol used for 802.1X authentication?
