Hello John,

in order to test a radius request and get rid of CLI Access.... add a Calling-Station-ID attribute in your request and it should be ok.

Also if you want to test 802.1x use eapol_test for that.

Regards

Fabrice

Hello Talented and Knowledgeable PacketFence Gurus!!

We use Nagios in our environment and I need to set up a service monitor for the Packetfence system. I'm already monitoring the server itself for the various stuff, disk, memory, cpu, etc., as well as the various relevant processes. But what I need is something that will permit me (or rather nagios) to go through a full dry run to verify that a user would be able to login using Radius. I have a test user account defined in our Active Directory and if I use it to actually attempt to log in with a real system on a real switch, it works fine. So that much is working okay. But when I try to just do a radius check from nagios (located on another system) with the same user and credentials, I keep running into all sorts of roadblocks such as "CLI Access is not allowed by PacketFence on this switch", etc. I have tried a number of different switch and configuration combinations, especially attempting to use the "PF::MockedSwitch" type as that seems the most reasonable, seeing as how nagios isn't a real switch. I've gone in and told it to permit CLI access (CliAccess=Y) and all the variations I can think of-- but nothing seems to work out. There is nothing wrong with the PacketFence system in general. We use it all day every day and have been for well over a year now. So it's just trying to get something set up for testing / monitoring that I'm having difficulties with. I'm fine with any type of Radius check as long as it uses the user defined in Active Directory and can return the answer to a remote system (i.e., the nagios system). I don't need it to do any vlans or special handling. Just verify that the user could log in as far as PacketFence is concerned.

Can anybody offer any advice or assistance on this?

Thanks!

John Whitten
