NAME

       radtest - RADIUS server test program

SYNOPSIS

       radtest	[  -afnrvx  ] [ -d called_station_id ] [ -g calling_station_id ] [ -i id ] [ -p port ] [ -s secret ] [ -t type ] -u username pass-
       word

DESCRIPTION

       radtest is a program useful to test the configuration of a running RADIUS daemon. You need to add localhost to servers' authorized clients.
       This program is a client for authentication protocol only, it does not manage accounting packets currently.

       You could use it to test either the YARD RADIUS daemon or any other standard RADIUS server.

OPTIONS

       -a     Sets accounting protocol on. Not yet implemented.

       -d called_station_id
	      Sets the called station identifier for building packets.

       -f     Sets user type to framed. This is overrided by -t option below.

       -g calling_station_id
	      Sets the calling station identifier for building packets.

       -h     Prints out usage of the command.

       -i id  Sets the packet identifier to number `id'.

       -n     Not yet implemented.

       -p port
	      Uses udp port `port' instead of the value specified in /etc/services or the default one (1645).

       -r     Not yet implemented.

       -s  secret
	      Specifies the secret key to use (default is localkey)

       -v     Prints version information.

       -l file
	      Changes the logging file.

       -x     Prints (or should do so) debugging messages while compiling.

FILES

       /usr/conf/users
	      This  file  contains  the  human	readable information for users' accounting and authorization. See radius_attributes(5) for details
	      about its syntax.

       /usr/conf/users.db
	      The same of the previous one as compiled in by builddbm in GDBM format. It needs to be compiled again every time you make changes to
	      the previous one and without restarting radiusd .

       /usr/conf/dictionary
	      This  read-only  file  contains the codes and formats for standard and vendor RADIUS protocol attributes and values along with their
	      human readable representation. It is subject to change, due to new access server supports. It is a plain text file with a pletora of
	      comments in it.

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.
