Posted by Verlene on Apr 12, 2026 at 05:20 PM

[Network Security]

An engineer is configuring 802.1X authentication on Cisco switches in the network and is using CoA as a mechanism. Which port on the firewall must be opened to allow the CoA traffic to traverse the network?

Suggested Answer: B

CoA Messages are sent on two different udp ports depending on the platform. Cisco standardizes on UDP port

1700, while the actual RFC calls out using UDP port 3799.

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.
