radius-server test

Sets the user name to be used in the RADIUS request packets for RADIUS dead server detection.
Syntax
radius-server test user-name
no radius-server test
Command Default

There is no user name configured.

Parameters
user-name
The false user name used in the server test.
Modes

Global configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

The username should not be configured on the server, so that the server responds with Access-Reject message if the server is available.

If the device does not receive a response from a RADIUS server within a specified time limit and number of retries, the RADIUS server is marked as dead. The time limit and number of retries can be manually configured using the radius-server timeout and radius-server retransmit commands respectively.

The no form of the command disables the configuration to send RADIUS request packets with false usernames for RADIUS dead server detection.

Examples

The following example configures the user name as 'test-user' to test the availability of the server.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# radius-server test test-user
