Testing authentication

These cli commands can help you test your radius or ldap server:

# diag test auth radius <server_name> <chap | pap | mschap | mschap2> <username> <pwd> 
# diag test authserver ldap <server_name> <username> <pwd>

These commands turn on more extensive debugging output for authentication which can be useful for figuring out what is wrong:

# diag debug reset
# diag debug application fnbamd –1
# diag debug enable

I've had situations where pressing the <test> button works, group lookup works, but actual authentication fails. In one case the diag steps above showed me that TLS wasn't actually happening.

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
