Hello Fabrice,

I saw this was added to 11.2. However, I have no idea on how to properly 
configure this feature. I couldn’t find anything in the documentation. I did 
see that I can create an admin role, but I’m not sure what to do after that. 
Can you provide some information on how to configure this feature?

Thank You,

Trevor Bryant

Subject: Re: [PacketFence-users] RADIUS Tracking Issues & Best Practice

Hello Trevor,

in the coming new PacketFence release we added that:

https://github.com/inverse-inc/packetfence/pull/6772

Which allow you to create a radius probe account in order to test if the server 
is available.

Btw access-reject also means that the server is available.

Regards
Fabrice

Hello,

I’m using PacketFence with Aruba Network switches. I have enabled RADIUS 
tracking on the switches to determine if the PacketFence servers are active 
responding to requests. Even though this username isn’t active and the request 
fails, it still sends the failed message back to the switch so the switch can 
determine if RADIUS is actually working or not.

I configured tracking to test authentication using “RADIUS-Tracking-User” as 
the username. Every 5 min, my switches will try to authenticate using that 
username. This is filling up my audit logs with these failed auth messages.  
Also, it shows lots of failed RADIUS authentications under the dashboard view. 
They are legitimate for obvious reasons, but I would like to see if anyone has 
any suggestion on how to better manage this.

Is there a way to prevent any authentication requests from this username to be 
rejected, but not logged to the audit log?

Thank You
