  See raddebug.  It's possible to turn on debug mode temporarily.

  But it's not really needed.

  I mentioned PEAP / TTLS.  They're authentication protocols which have an "outer" and "inner' identity.

  Go read up on how PEAP and TTLS work.  e.g. Wikipedia, or other places.  This is all explained.

  The "outer" identity here is "anonymous".  The "inner" identity contains the real user name,

  Edit sites-enabled/inner-tunnel.  Change it to log the User-Name.

  You should set up a test RADIUS server.  They're free.  Then, use eapol_test to run tests.  See src/tests/eap-ttls-pap.conf

  You can see how things work in a test environment.
