This read-only object reports the current state of the Radio Slave's authorization finite-state machine, such as authWait while awaiting a response or authorized once successfully authenticated, with start(1) indicating the FSM's initial state. An admin monitors this to confirm a slave radio has actually completed the BPI authorization handshake with the master rather than being stuck retrying. For example, if a subscriber radio's cwrBpiRsAuthState is stuck at authWait for an extended period, the admin knows the authorization exchange with the master is failing and encrypted service isn't being established.
