First, go to Wireless->Configuration->My RADIUS Server->Add RADIUS server. Add two servers as follows:
The login "pattern" for Test Connectivity is: test_RADIUS,
where RADIUS is the Radius Secret available in Access Points tab of the Social WiFi Panel.
For password use the same credential.
For example, if my Radius Secret is "myradiussecret", my login would be "test_myradiussecret".
