HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01 Administrator's Guide

11. Verify that your HP-UX AAA Server is installed and operating correctly by using
the testing user (named test_user) created during installation. After test_user
is authenticated and the AAA server sends an Access-Accept, the client sends an
Accounting-Request to start the session. After the session is terminated, the client
sends an Accounting-Request stop message to stop the session logging and the
AAA server writes the session information to a file.
a. Enter the following command:
# /opt/aaa/bin/radpwtst -s localhost -i 192.0.2.0 -l test_user
This command simulates an Access-Request from port 1 of a NAS with an IP
address of 192.0.2.0. When prompted for a password, enter: password. The
command must return the following output:
’test_user’ authentication OK
b. Enter the following command:
# /opt/aaa/bin/radpwtst -c 4 -s localhost -i 192.0.2.0 -l 1 -u
ppp -:Acct-Status-Type=Start test_user
This command simulates an Accounting-Request start message, activating
the users’s PPP session. The command must return the following output:
Accounting Response received
c. Enter the following command:
# /opt/aaa/bin/radpwtst -c 4 -s localhost -i 192.0.2.0 -l 1 -u
ppp -:Acct-Status-Type=Stop test_user
This command simulates an Accounting-Request stop message, terminating
the users’s session. The command must return the following output:
Accounting Response received
d. View the session logs for test_user’s start and stop accounting messages
by selecting Accounting in Server Manager’s navigation tree and clicking
Display.
IMPORTANT: HP recommends removing test_user or changing it’s default
password before deploying the HP-UX AAA Server in a production environment. See
“Securing the HP-UX AAA Server” (page 55) for more information.
