Managing User Status and Authentication Settings
RADIUS Client Test
You can test your RADIUS Client user name and password by typing in a valid user name in the User
field, and the password in the Password field.
If the validation is successful, the Status messages changes to Success. If the validation fails, the
Status message changes to Failure. Once the SonicWALL has been configured, a VPN Security
Association requiring RADIUS authentication prompts incoming VPN clients to type a User Name and
Password into a dialogue box.
