NAME

radeapclient - send EAP packets to a RADIUS server, calculate responses

SYNOPSIS

radeapclient [−4] [−6] [−c count] [−d raddb_directory] [−f file] [−h] [−i source_ip] [−q] [−s] [−r retries] [−S file] [−t timeout] [−v] [−x] server {acct|auth} secret

DESCRIPTION

radeapclient is a radius client program. It can send arbitrary radius packets to a radius server, then shows the reply. Radeapclient differs from radclient in that if there is an EAP-MD5 challenge, then it will be responded to.

radeapclient is otherwise identical to radclient.

The EAP-Identity attribute, if present is used to construct an EAP Identity message.

The EAP-MD5-Password attribute, if present is used to respond to an MD5 challenge.

No other EAP types are currently supported.

OPTIONS


	−4		Use IPv4 (default)
	−6		Use IPv6

−c count

Send each packet count times.

−d raddb

Set dictionary directory.

−f file

Read packets from file, not stdin.

−r retries

If timeout, retry sending the packet retries times.

−t timeout

Wait timeout seconds before retrying (may be a floating point number).


	−h		Print usage help information.
	−i id		Set request id to ’id’. Values may be 0..255

−S file

Read secret from file, not command line.


	−q		Quiet, do not print anything out.
	−s		Print out summary information of auth results.
	−v		Show program version information.
	−x		Enable debugging mode.

EXAMPLE

A sample session that queries the remote server with an EAP-MD5 challenge.

( echo ’User-Name = “bob”’;
echo ’EAP-MD5-Password = “hello”’;
echo ’NAS-IP-Address = marajade.sandelman.ottawa.on.c’;
echo ’EAP-Code = Response’;
echo ’EAP-Id = 210’;
echo ’EAP-Type-Identity = “bob”;
echo ’Message-Authenticator = 0x00’;
echo ’NAS-Port = 0’ ) >req.txt

radeapclient -x localhost auth testing123 <req.txt
