RADIUS Test

This tool tests network connectivity between a device acting as a RADIUS authenticator (RADIUS client) and RADIUS authentication server, which can be an Extreme Networks RADIUS server, or an external RADIUS authentication or accounting server.

To test the connectivity between a RADIUS authenticator and a RADIUS server, perform the following steps:

  1. Select the type of RADIUS server you want to test.
    • To test connectivity to an Extreme Networks RADIUS server, choose Select a Server (local RADIUS), and then select a RADIUS server from the drop-down list.
    • To test connectivity to an external RADIUS authentication or accounting server, select Enter a Server (external RADIUS), and enter the IP address of the server in the field.
  2. Select a managed device that is acting as a RADIUS authenticator (client) from the drop-down list.
    This is the device from which the RADIUS Access-Request or Accounting-Request message is sent.
  3. Select either RADIUS Authentication Server or RADIUS Accounting Server.
    If you select an authentication server, you must also enter supplicant credentials (a user name or barcode, and a password or PIN) for a valid user account on the RADIUS authentication server. You can also enter a user name and password that do not match an account on the RADIUS server.
  4. Select Test.

Results appear under Test Result. A successful test result is shown below.
