    2 Controllers using VRRP (master/standby).  Amigopod for Guest access, getting the correct private IP, getting the redirect captive portal.  enter the valid username/password and getting Auth Server Timeout.  I can ping the amigopod server, can ping the controller, etc.  Amigopod and controller show no errors in logs.  Also failing 'Test AAA Server' in the diagnostics on the controller.  Can someone help?  Not sure what else to look at.

    On the controller CLI, do "show ip radius source-interface".  Is the address listed there the same one you used for your client configuration in Amigopod?

    address in Amigopod for NAS Server?  if so, yes.  I have all 5 IP's just incase ( master/standby vlan IP's, loopbacks & VRRP address)

    If you have the right NAS-IP in Amigopod, double check the key (you probably already did that, but I have to ask...).

     

    Is there any filters (firewalls or ACLs) between the controller and the Amigopod box that would drop RADIUS?

    I changed all keys (about 5 times :) ).  There is a fw inbetween but its not being blocked

    On Amigopod run the Radius debugging.   It will show you details of the logon attempt that the traditional visible logs do not; including incorrect Radius shared secrets/keys.

     

    Under Radius --> Server Control --> Choose Debug Radius Server.  You'll get detailed output of the logon attempt that should help you.  If you still do not see any entries, I'd look to make sure the appropriate ports are open between the controllers and Amigopod.

    THAT WAS IT! after debugging, it said key was incorrect.  I changed the RFC key on the controller and wah-la!  thanks for the help
