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 password

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.
