NAME
       radtest - send packets to a RADIUS server, show reply

SYNOPSIS
       radtest [-d raddb_directory] [-t pap/chap/mschap] [-x ] [-4 ] [-6 ] user password radius-server nas-port-number secret [ppphint] [nasname]

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

OPTIONS
       -d raddb_directory
	      The directory that contains the RADIUS dictionary files. Defaults to /etc/raddb.

       -t pap/chap/mschap/eap-md5
	      Choose the authentiction method to use.  e.g. "-t pap", "-t chap", "-t mschap", or "-t eap-md5",.  Defaults to "pap".  Using EAP-MD5
	      requires that the "radeapclient" program is installed.

       -x     Enables debugging output for the RADIUS client.

       -4     Use NAS-IP-Address for the NAS address (default)

       -6     Use NAS-IPv6-Address for the NAS address (default)

       user   Username to send.

       password
	      Password of the user.

       radius-server
	      Hostname or IP address of the radius server. Optionally, you may specify a port by appending :port

       nas-port-number
	      The  value  of  the NAS-Port attribute. Is an integer between 0 and 2^31, and it really doesn't matter what you put here. 10 will do
	      fine.

       secret The shared secret for this client.

       ppphint
	      If you put an integer > 0 here, radtest (or actually radclient) will add the attribute Framed-Protocol = PPP to the request packet.

       nasname
	      If present, this will be resolved to an IP address and added to the request packet as the NAS-IP-Address	attribute.  If	you  don't
	      specify it, the local hostname of the system will be used.
