Note

Start packet capture in DUT2 to filter RADIUS stop messages (e.g., traffic dump monitor interface eth0 detail filter "udp port 1813" packets 1).

Note

Send a CoA/Disconnect request from the RADIUS server On Linux, the FreeRADIUS package includes the utility radtest that can be used to send these messages:

Test MAB NAS Request Cause

Description

This scenario shows how to stop a MAB authenticated session from the authentication server using a CoA message. Accounting RADIUS stop messages should contain the following attribute: acct-terminate-cause=10.

Scenario

Step 1: Set the following configuration in DUT2 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 10.215.168.66/24
set interfaces ethernet eth0 traffic nat destination rule 1 address 192.168.200.2
set interfaces ethernet eth0 traffic nat source rule 1 address masquerade
set interfaces ethernet eth1 address 192.168.200.1/24
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Note

Start packet capture in DUT2 to filter RADIUS stop messages (e.g., traffic dump monitor interface eth0 detail filter "udp port 1813" packets 1).

Note

Send a CoA/Disconnect request from the RADIUS server On Linux, the FreeRADIUS package includes the utility radtest that can be used to send these messages:

      Failed filter : 0

Step 7: Run command interfaces ethernet eth2 authenticator show status at DUT0 and check if output contains the following tokens:

Current status: Unauthorized
Show output
Current status: Unauthorized

Note

Stop packet capture in DUT0 and expect the following RADIUS messages:
