The tools>perform>security>authentication-server-check command can be used to troubleshoot a RADIUS server by checking the connectivity and functional status of a RADIUS server for subscriber management operations. The command keyword debug can be specified to view more information about the access request. All VSAs sent and received from the RADIUS server, the hex dump, and all other debug information can be shown without the need to turn on system-wide debugging.
