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.
