Definitely UDP 1700. It’s used for CoA in some setups.

I doubt TCP 6514 is correct. It's not related to CoA.

What about TCP 6514? Isn't that for syslog?

I agree with Margarett. RADIUS uses UDP 1812 for authentication.

I feel like UDP 1812 is the right choice. It's for RADIUS, right?

I think it's TCP 49. Seems logical for authentication.

Wait, are we sure about that? I thought CoA used a different port.

I’m leaning towards UDP 1700 since it sounds familiar, but I might be mixing it up with something else.

I feel like I read that CoA traffic needs to go through a specific port, but I can't recall if it's UDP or TCP.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think TCP 49 was mentioned for TACACS+, but I'm confused about the CoA specifics.

I think CoA uses RADIUS, so it might be UDP 1812, but I'm not entirely sure.
