Retrieved Parameters

1) Current PAE Authenticator State Machine Status

As per current implementation, AAA State Machine has only following states.

Idle, Started, Pending, Authorized / Unauthorized.

Map above mentioned state to implemented state machin

·         Initialize – Started (implemented in Jira seba-35, Number of transitions to connecting due to start request)

·         Disconnected – Idle (will be implemented as part this JIRA)

·         Connecting & Authenticating – Pending (will be implemented as part this JIRA)

·         Authenticated – Authorized (implemented in Jira-35, Number of authenticated transitions due to successful authentication)

·         Aborting – No Mapping

·         Held – No Mapping

·         Force Authentication – No Mapping

·         Force UnAuthentication – No Mapping

2) Current PAE Backend State Machine Status

Current implementation has only one state machine and it has only following states.

Idle, Started, Pending, Authorized / Unauthorized.

3) Current Status of the Authenticator

4) Current number of valid EAPOL frames received

5) Current number of EAPOL frames transmitted

6) Current number of start EAPOL frames received

This is implemented as part of SEBA-35 requirement “Number of transitions to connecting due to start request”

7) Current number of logoff EAPOL frames received

This is implemented as part of SEBA-35 requirement “Number of transitions to disconnected due to logoff request”

8) Current number of response ID EAP frames received

9) Current number of response EAP frames received
This is implemented as part of SEBA-35 requirement “Number of authenticating transitions due to EAP response or identity message”

10) Current number of request ID EAP frames transmitted

11) Current number of request EAP frames transmitted

12) Current number of EAPOL frames received with invalid frame type

13) Current number of EAPOL frames received with invalid body length

14) Most recently received protocol version

This would make sense per session, Moving this requirement to Jira-36 where we are implementing stats per session.

15) Most recently received source MAC address

This would make sense per session, Moving this requirement to Jira-36 where we are implementing stats per session.
