(RADIATOR) Re: FW: Cisco "Packet of Death" = Radius "Disconnect-Request"?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Dave -

I don't know why your mails have not appeared on the list, and Mike 
is away for a couple of weeks so I can't check with him why not.

In answer to your question, yes the Disconnect-Request is what is 
being refered to and yes you can use radpwtst to send a 
Disconnect-Request to a NAS.

regards

Hugh
