How to Test using the SiteMinder Test Tool

The SiteMinder Test Tool simulates the behavior of a RADIUS authentication server. Using the Test Tool, you can test policies that authenticate RADIUS users and ensure that the response attributes you configured are returning the appropriate data.

The process of testing RADIUS policies includes the following steps:

1. Create a RADIUS policy.
2. Configure the Policy Server Management Console to use RADIUS, as explained in Configure the Policy Server Management Console.
3. Configure the SiteMinder Test Tool to test RADIUS policies, as explained in Test RADIUS Policies.
