    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Configure sending the Message-Authenticator attribute in all Access-Request packets on the server

    This configuration enables the NPS Proxy to start sending the Message-Authenticator attribute in all Access-Request packets. To enable this configuration, use one of the following methods.

    Method 1: Use the NPS Microsoft Management Console (MMC)

    To use the NPS MMC, follow these steps:

    Open the NPS user interface (UI) on the server.

    Open the remote Radius Server Groups.

    Select Radius Server.

    Go to Authentication/Accounting.

    Click to select the The request must contain the Message-Authenticator attribute checkbox.

    Method 2: Use the netsh command

    To use netsh, run the following command:

    netsh nps set remoteserver remoteservergroup = <server group name> address = <server address> requireauthattrib = yes

    For more information, see Remote RADIUS Server Group Commands.

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best regards

    Zunhui
