What is copsClientErrAuthFailures?

This read-only Counter32 counts how many times this client has received a message marked for this Client-Type that could not be authenticated using its authentication mechanism. It flags credential or key mismatches breaking secure COPS sessions between client and server. For example, an admin sees copsClientErrAuthFailures climb right after a shared-secret rotation was only applied on one side of the COPS link.
