Radius Test is the Client side of the RADIUS Protocol. It will create Access-Request packet and place some attribute in it like user-name and user-password attributes. And then it will send that packet to the tekRadius. tekRadius will match the attributes with the attributes in the tekRadius software and will send the access-accept massage or packet to the client according to the match. If attributes were matched, then tekRadius will send the success-reply and if they didn't match, then it will not send any access-response message.
