It can send arbitrary DHCP +packets to the FreeRADIUS server running as DHCP server, then shows the reply. +It can be used to test changes you made in the configuration of the radius server, +or it can be used to monitor if a radius server is up. +.PP +\fBdhcpclient\fP reads radius attribute/value pairs from its standard +input, or from a file specified on the command line. It then encodes +these attribute/value pairs using the dictionary, and sends them +to the local/remote server. +.PP + +.SH OPTIONS + +.IP \-d\ \fIraddb_directory\fP +The directory that contains the user dictionary file. Defaults to +\fI/etc/raddb\fP. +.IP \-D\ \fIdictionary_directory\fP +The directory that contains the main dictionary file. Defaults to +\fI/usr/share/freeradius\fP. +.IP \-f\ \fIfile[:file]\fP +File to read the attribute/value pairs from. If this is not specified, +they are read from stdin. This option can be specified multiple +times, in which case packets are sent in order by file, and within +each file, by first packet to last packet. A blank line separates +logical packets within a file. +.IP \-h +Print usage help information. +.IP \-i\ \fIinterface\fP +Select which interface to send/receive at packet level on a raw socket. +.IP \-t\ \fItimeout\fP +Wait \fItimeout\fP seconds before deciding that the NAS has not +responded to a request, and re-sending the packet. This may be a floating +point number, e.g. 2.2. +.IP \-v +Print out program version information. +.IP \-x +Print out debugging information. +.IP server[:port] +The hostname or IP address of the remote server. Optionally a UDP port +can be specified. If no UDP port is specified, it is looked up in +\fI/etc/services\fP. The service name looked for is \fBradacct\fP for +accounting packets, and \fBradius\fP for all other requests. If a +service is not found in \fI/etc/services\fP, 1813 and 1812 are used +respectively. +.IP discover\ |\ request\ |\ decline\ |\ release\ |\ inform\ |\ auto +DHCP options - use the type relevant for testing + +.SH SEE ALSO +radiusd(8) +.SH AUTHORS +Alan DeKok <aland@freeradius.org> |
