To quickly test the server installation, you will use Server
Manager to add a loopback connection to a AAA server, start the
server, and then check its status for a response. Use the following
steps to test the server installation:
Follow the directions
for “Running Server Manager ” to start Server Manager
after installing the HP-UX AAA Server software.
Select the Server Connections
link from the Navigation Tree and then select the Connect to Server
link.
Enter the values for your server
in the Add Connection screen that appears and select Create:
- Name
The identifying string of a remote server.
- Domain Name or IP Address
The IP address (in dotted-quad notation)
or valid Domain Name System (DNS) host name of the AAA server
that the connection maps to.
Verify the server is listed and
selected in the Server Status frame.
Select the Administration link
from the Navigation Tree.
Select the Start option.
Verify the server started. A
green "GO" icon in the Server Status frame indicates
the server is running.
Verify the server is selected
in the Server Status frame and then select the Status option.
Check Server Manager's
Message Frame for the status reply. The following reply at the bottom
of the Message Frame indicates the server is running correctly:
"<server name> (port#)" is responding |
If you did not receive this message, refer to the Troubleshooting
chapter in HP-UX AAA Server Administration
and Authentication Guide. You can also use this guide
