Updating the Trace Settings

To configure RADIUS authentication, you must first update the trace settings.

Edit the following file:

<MFT Install>\server\webapps\cfcc\WEB-INF\classes\log4j.properties

If the following RADIUS entries listed are not in the log4j.properties file, add these lines to this file. The placement of these lines is not important as long as it is not in the middle of another section. 

# Set logging level for RADIUS authentication
log4j.logger.com.proginet.sift.login.RADIUSAuthMethod=TRACE, RADIUSFile
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile.File=${cfi.trace.dir}/RADIUS-trace.txt
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile.ImmediateFlush=true
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile.Append=true
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile.DatePattern='-'yyyy-MM-dd
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.RADIUSFile.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss} [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n

Normally the trace level is set to ERROR. It is good practice to set the trace level to TRACE while configuring and testing RADIUS for the first time. After RADIUS has been tested, set the trace level to ERROR.

Note: For these changes to take place, the MFT server must be restarted.
