(RADIATOR) Silly question.

[Paul]

Most OSS tools can make RADIUS requests - we use ISM Netcool, even some load
balancers like the Alteon AceDirector can make active health checks. If your
tool can't make RADIUS requests you could try adapting 'radpwtst' and use
that in a script as a testing tool to check if Radiator is running. Also for
high availability use 'restartwrapper' included in the Radiator
distribution.

Hi there.

I been testing a network monitoring program. It cans test radius servers,
but I neet to "talk" to radiator to be able to see if it's down or not.

For example you can test if a certain server has the http service up just
"teleneting" it in the 80 port like this:

telnet machine.at.some.domain 80

then you write

HEAD / HTTP1.0^^

and if the service is up it will tell you something like:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

how can I achieve almos the same behavior talking with radiator?.

PD: I know (of course) radiator is UDP based, but I still think maybe there
is a way to talk to it.


Thanks in advance for the help.
