Sorry, again. I didn't mean not to lookup eapol_test. This is what happened. 1. Initially, I thought I will work without NAS and required information about how to get the wpa_supplicant to talk with the Free radius server directly. You suggested eapol_test for this. 2. When I resent my questions, I had already switched to the setup where I was working with a NAS (hostapd) in between the radius server and the wpa_supplicant. Hence, I did not look up eapol_test thinking eapol_test was the solution for point #1. I did not realise it also had the answers to running multiple sessions until your next reply. :( That is why i missed looking up the eapol_test. Thank you very much for your time.

Sorry about the multiple questions.
But, I really didnt get what tool to use for the following question :(
I said: See eapol_test. It's included with wpa_supplicant.
4. Are they good for scalability testing or should I look out for other open source wpa supplicants/NASs?
I will be grateful if you can answer this again for me please. Thanks again for reading my message.

Also, in question #2, what processes are you referring to? please shed some light on this. sorry again.
2. When you say "Just run 5-6 processes at the same time.", can one interface be used to send out multiple simultaneous wpa supplicant requests? If yes, how many wpa client sessions can i generate on 1 interface?
I said: See eapol_test. It's included with wpa_supplicant. If you go read the documentation for what eapol_test is, and what it does, your question (2) is answered. You need to read the answers on this list, and follow the instructions. You've asked the same questions *repeatedly* when it's clear you haven't bothered to look at eapol_test.
