Radius fortigate 100E v6.0.0 Authentication failed

Hi,

I have a Fortigate 100E with OS v 6.0.0 installed and setup radius with a windows 2012 server.

The radius server is found but when I test the credentials from the fortigate it failes with "Invalid credentials"

I have set this up before with an older OS version and that is working just fine. I checked all of the settings between these 2 configurations and they are the same. 

Any ideas why radius authentication is not working?

    In this version, the FortiGate uses PAP (by default) for authentication tests from GUI.

    If the server is configured with MS-CHAP-v2, then the tests must be performed through the CLI.

     

    FGT_01# diagnose test authserver radius NPS mschap2 username password

    Seems that the test in the fortigate failes but when using the VPN it is authenticated. So small bug in test authentication.

    Out of curiosity, are you doing the test via the CLI or the GUI?
