FailWhileAuthenticating
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATING to HELD, as a result of the Backend
Authentication state machine indicating authentication failure
(authFail = TRUE).
ReauthsWhileAuthenticating
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATING to ABORTING, as a result of a reauthentication
request (reAuthenticate = TRUE).
EapStartsWhileAuthenticating
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATING to ABORTING, as a result of an EAPOL-Start
message being received from the Supplicant.
EapLogoffWhileAuthenticating
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATING to ABORTING, as a result of an EAPOL-Logoff
message being received from the Supplicant.
ReauthsWhileAuthenticated
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATED to CONNECTING, as a result of a
reauthentication request (reAuthenticate = TRUE).
EapStartsWhileAuthenticated
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATED to CONNECTING, as a result of an EAPOL-
Start message being received from the Supplicant.
EapLogoffWhileAuthenticated
Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from
AUTHENTICATED to DISCONNECTED, as a result of an EAPOL-
Logoff message being received from the Supplicant.
BackendResponses
Counts the number of times that the state machine sends an initial
Access-Request packet to the Authentication server (i.e., executes
sendRespToServer on entry to the RESPONSE state). Indicates
that the Authenticator attempted communication with the
Authentication Server.
BackendAccessChallenges
Counts the number of times that the state machine receives an
initial Access-Challenge packet from the Authentication server (i.e.,
aReq becomes TRUE, causing exit from the RESPONSE state).
Indicates that the Authentication Server has communication with
the Authenticator.
BackendOtherRequestToSupplicant
Counts the number of times that the state machine sends an EAP-
Request packet (other than an Identity, Notification, Failure, or
Success message) to the Supplicant (i.e., executes txReq on entry
to the REQUEST state). Indicates that the Authenticator chose an
EAP-method.
BackendNonNakResponsesFromSupplicant
Counts the number of times that the state machine receives a
response from the Supplicant to an initial EAP-Request, and the
response is something other than EAP-NAK (i.e., rxResp becomes
TRUE, causing the state machine to transition from REQUEST to
RESPONSE, and the response is not an EAP-NAK). Indicates that
the Supplicant can respond to the Authenticator’s chosen EAP-
method.
BackendAuthSuccesses
Counts the number of times that the state machine receives an
Accept message from the Authentication Server (i.e., aSuccess
becomes TRUE, causing a transition from RESPONSE to
SUCCESS). Indicates that the Supplicant has successfully
authenticated to the Authentication Server.
BackendAuthFails
Counts the number of times that the state machine receives a
442
