The protocol that is used between an endpoint and a switch with an 802.1 authentication is EAP, which stands for Extensible Authentication Protocol. EAP is a framework that defines how the endpoint (also called the supplicant) and the switch (also called the authenticator) exchange authentication messages over a wired or wireless network. EAP supports various authentication methods, such as passwords, certificates, tokens, or biometrics, and can be encapsulated in different transport protocols, such as RADIUS, Diameter, or EAPOL. EAP is used in 802.1X authentication, which is a standard for port-based network access control that prevents unauthorized access to a network1.

The other options, TACACS, MAB, and RADIUS, are not protocols that are used between an endpoint and a switch with an 802.1 authentication. TACACS is a protocol that provides remote authentication and authorization for network devices, such as routers or switches, but it is not used for endpoint authentication. MAB is a technique that uses the MAC address of an endpoint as a credential for 802.1X authentication, but it is not a protocol itself. RADIUS is a protocol that provides centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting for network access, but it is not used directly between the endpoint and the switch, but rather between the switch and the authentication server1. References := : 2: What Is 802.1X Authentication?

SD-WAN is a software-defined approach to managing the WAN that offers several capabilities, such as:

• The separation of management plane, control plane and data plane to enable horizontal scaling. This means that the SD-WAN solution can decouple the network functions from the underlying hardware and distribute them across different layers and locations. This allows for greater flexibility, scalability, and resilience of the network12
• Cloud hosted or on-premise fully redundant management and control plane functions. This means that the SD-WAN solution can provide centralized and cloud-based management and control of the network, as well as the option to deploy them on-premise for more control and security. This enables the SD-WAN solution to offer consistent policies, visibility, and analytics across the network, as well as the ability to automate network operations and orchestration13

The other options are not SD-WAN solution capabilities, but rather features or benefits of specific SD-WAN solutions, such as:

• Trust roll branch turn up for easy provisioning and new installations. This is a feature of Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN, which enables zero-touch provisioning and automated configuration of branch devices, as well as the ability to trust the identity and security posture of the devices3
• Ability to provide and integrate security with complementary products and applications. This is a benefit of Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN, which offers integrated security capabilities, such as full-stack multilayer security, cloud-delivered security, and SASE-enabled architecture. This enables the SD-WAN solution to provide real-time threat protection and compliance across the network3
