Displaying Information on Authentication Servers
– 245 –
Accept, Access-Reject, Access-Challenge, timeout, or
retransmission.
■
Timeouts – The number of authentication timeouts to the server.
After a timeout, the client may retry to the same server, send to a
different server, or give up. A retry to the same server is counted as
a retransmit as well as a timeout. A send to a different server is
counted as a Request as well as a timeout.
◆
Other Info
■
IP Address – IP address and UDP port for the authentication
server.
■
State – The current state of the server. This field takes one of the
following values:
■
Disabled – The server is disabled.
■
Not Ready – The server is enabled, but IP communication is not
yet up and running.
■
Ready – The server is enabled, IP communication is up and
running, and the RADIUS module is ready to accept access
attempts.
■
Dead (X seconds left) – Access attempts were made to this
server, but it did not reply within the configured timeout. The
server has been temporarily disabled, but will be re-enabled
when the dead-time expires. The number of seconds left before
this occurs is displayed in parentheses.
■
Round-Trip Time – The time interval (measured in milliseconds)
between the most recent Access-Reply/Access-Challenge and the
Access-Request that matched it from the RADIUS authentication
server. The granularity of this measurement is 100 ms. A value of 0
ms indicates that there hasn't been round-trip communication with
the server yet.
RADIUS Accounting Statistics
◆ Receive Packets
■
Responses – The number of RADIUS packets (valid or invalid)
received from the server.
■
Malformed Responses – The number of malformed RADIUS
packets received from the server. Malformed packets include
packets with an invalid length. Bad authenticators or unknown
types are not included as malformed access responses.
■
Bad Authenticators – The number of RADIUS packets containing
invalid authenticators received from the server.
