| Description | The IP address, %1, of the RADIUS client, %2, is not a valid IP address. |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft : Resolution : Change the configuration of the RADIUS client This condition can occur under the following circumstances: 1. In the NPS Microsoft Management Console (MMC), a RADIUS client is configured by fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or NetBIOS name rather than by IP address, and NPS has not received a DNS server response to the name resolution query. Without the IP address provided by the name resolution query, NPS cannot contact the RADIUS client. 2. NPS is receiving communication from a RADIUS client that is not configured in the NPS MMC. 3.In the NPS MMC, a RADIUS client is configured by either IPv4 or IPv6 address, but the format of the IP address is incorrect. To perform this procedure, you must be a member of Domain Admins . To fix DNS name resolution issues: a) Use DNS client and server troubleshooting information to diagnose and repair the DNS name resolution issue. b) In the NPS MMC, configure the RADIUS client with the IP address of the RADIUS client rather than the DNS name. To configure a new RADIUS client: 1.Click Start, Administrative Tools, Network Policy Server . The NPS MMC opens. 2. Double-click RADIUS Clients and Servers . 3.
