Using ACCEPT MODE (Emergency Failsafe Option)

What is ACCEPT mode?

ACCEPT mode provides a great failsafe option for extreme emergencies or network testing.

While in ACCEPT mode, TCCRadius will simply let all users into the system. TCCRadius will generate an Access-Accept packet for each user. Remember to switch back to NORMAL mode when finished.

To enable ACCEPT mode, simply modify the default user and change the password of the default user to 'accept'.

Enable ACCEPT Mode While Using TEXT OR ODBC Authentication

Simply create a default user. Create a text file in notepad or your favorite text editor and name it 'default' (no quotes of course). Place it in your 'users' directory specified in the TCCRadius.cfg file. Then, enter the following lines:

username = default
password = accept

Now, if TCCRadius is running, you have just switched to ACCEPT mode. There is no need to restart. Changing modes happens immediately since the default user is checked each time a user is authenticated.
