Adding Nas and Authentication
Hi, sadly there is no good documentation for installation or using Radman and it took so long just make it work with FreeRADIUS. Is there any way to test a NAS definition with radtest tool from the NAS itself? It fails to add nas to freeradius when checking freeradius -X log.
I checked this problem and the problem is when defining a new NAS. the NAME box is actually the address server. the Server box is the name of the server. I don't know it's intentionally designed this way or a mistake.
Hi,
nasname and shortname names come from FreeRadius itself:
https://github.com/FreeRADIUS/freeradius-server/blob/v3.0.x/raddb/mods-config/sql/main/mysql/schema.sql
You can check the nas table in the official FreeRadius schema - this is how they are called.
In RadMan in the NAS screen, we chose on purpose to keep this naming - so it would be easy to understand for anyone who has previously managed a FreeRadius database manually.
Integration with radtest is a good idea - however, RadMan can run on a different server than FreeRadius itself, so there is no guarantee RadMan will have access to radtest... we will see if we can come up with something tho.
