Testing WAP EAP from wired network?
Hi All, This is probably a pipe dream, but... I'm desperately trying to get a WPA2 wireless system up at a remote site, I'm not using EAP-MD5 so radeapclient can't help me. At last test radclient authenticates and authorizes the way I want but EAP from an actual wireless supplicant fails. I have some input on what I might do to fix this but given the "remote" bit I can't test it as readily as I'd like. My question is if I set up 802.1x on a wired port (with a multi homed host so I can get to it through the back door as it were), would this be a valid test or do I just need to wait untill I can make a (relatively short) trip on site? I'm not clear on how the wired and wireless versions differ. Thanks, -Jon
D'oH obviously the subject should be WPA not WAP. coffee++ -Jon

http://deployingradius.com It includes instructions for using a command-line supplicant for wireless testing without wireless. http://deployingradius.com/scripts/eapol_test/

Not much. Try my web site for detailed instructions on getting this to work. Alan DeKok.
