SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

13       radtest  is  a  frontend  to  radclient(1).  It  generates  a  list  of
14       attribute/value  pairs  based  on the command line arguments, and feeds
15       these into radclient. It's a fast and convenient way to test  a  radius
16       server.

OPTIONS

20       -d raddb_directory
21              The   directory  that  contains  the  RADIUS  dictionary  files.
22              Defaults to /etc/raddb.
23
24
25       -t pap/chap/mschap/eap-md5
26              Choose the authentiction method to  use.   e.g.  "-t  pap",  "-t
27              chap", "-t mschap", or "-t eap-md5",.  Defaults to "pap".  Using
28              EAP-MD5 requires that the "radeapclient" program is installed.
29

31       -x     Enables debugging output for the RADIUS client.
32

38
39
40       user   Username to send.
41
42
43       password
44              Password of the user.
45
46
47       radius-server
48              Hostname or IP address of the radius server. Optionally, you may
49              specify a port by appending :port
50
51
52       nas-port-number
53              The value of the NAS-Port attribute. Is an integer between 0 and
54              2^31, and it really doesn't matter what you put here. 10 will do
55              fine.
56
57
58       secret The shared secret for this client.
59
60
61       ppphint
62              If  you put an integer > 0 here, radtest (or actually radclient)
63              will add the attribute Framed-Protocol  =  PPP  to  the  request
64              packet.
65
66
67       nasname
68              If  present, this will be resolved to an IP address and added to
69              the request packet as the NAS-IP-Address attribute. If you don't
70              specify it, the local hostname of the system will be used.
