Basic Configuration
Verify the External Authentication Service
This procedure verifies that your RADIUS server will correctly authenticate users:

Transaction page appears, as shown in Figure 4-14.

Step 3.
Enter a known user name and password into Username and Password.
Step 4. Make sure the RADIUS authentication service you created is selected in the Authentication
Service drop-down list and click
Trace Transaction.
This function displays both the information sent to the Authentication Service and the returned
results. If something is incorrect, the Results Parameters will indicate an error. Possible reasons
for the error include:
• Invalid Username or Password or both
• RADIUS authentication service is not configured correctly
• RADIUS Server does not recognize the Access Control Server
If an error occurs, return to “External Authentication Service Configuration” on page 4-11 and
verify the RADIUS server configuration. Make sure to use a legitimate user name and password
recognized by the RADIUS server to test the RADIUS server.
If the RADIUS service works correctly, you should now be able to log the user off by going to URL
http://1.1.1.1 and log on again as a valid RADIUS user.
