I'm trying to set up Packetfence to provide radius authentication to our HP
switches. The one I'm testing on has a 5406 chassis. I've got packetfence
talking to our openLDAP directory, and authenticating admin access to
packetfence based on a MemberOf group.

I've added the switch by IP in PF, enabled CLI/VPN, configured the radius
secret, and configured the switch to use radius for telnet access (we don't
usually use telnet, but this way I can test radius without breaking ssh
access). I'm tailing the radius.log file and can see the switch attempt to
authenticate, verify the user and credentials successfully, with no errors
on the packetfence radius side, but the switch fails to authenticate with
the following message:

"Access denied: no user's authorization info supplied by the RADIUS server"

I have tried it with "aaa authentication login privilege-mode" enabled and
disabled and the result is the same.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, any suggestions?

On the switch, show authentication looks like this:
