Hello Ali ,
ok so no need to create a Radius Authentication source.
What you just need to do is the following:
be sure that the password encryption is nthash or cleartext.
uncomment packetfence-local-auth
create a connection profile with a filter like SSID = my_SSID
and select the source local.
Then create your switch on the PacketFence side with the same shared
secret (pf and switch side).
Create users in the user tab and assign them the correct role and access
duration.
And you will be good.
Regards
Fabrice

Hi Durand,
Much appreciate the quick response, actually our use case is such that
we want to authenticate clients directly against PF/Radius, without
going to portal. For that I have uncommented the
/packetfence-local-auth/in */usr/local/pf/conf/radiusd/packetfence-tunnel*
*
*
*You think that makes sense?*
*

*Thanks,*

Hello Ali,
In Radius source timeout will be the time you allow the radius
source to answer and shared secret is the shared secret between
the pf and the radius server.
Btw the Radius source is a way to do the authentication on the portal.
Shared secret in the switch config is the shared secret between
the switch (you defined it in the switch configuration) and
Packetfence.

Hi All,
When setting up internal radius in PF, whats the purpose of
Timeout and Secret?
Secondly when we add a switch there is a Radius tab where we put
Secret key, whats the relations between these two keys? Why is
secret added in two different places?
Thanks
Ali
