This read-only Counter counts the number of times the initiator has aborted a login because the target could not be authenticated, a case where the MIB notes no response is generated and a cpqiScsiIntrLoginFailure notification should result. An admin uses this to catch situations where the local initiator distrusts the target's identity, a security-relevant event distinct from the target rejecting the initiator. For example, an admin would investigate a rise in this counter as a potential man-in-the-middle or misconfigured mutual-CHAP setup rather than a simple credentials typo.
