dot1xAuthAuthTimeoutsWhileAuthenticating
Module: IEEE8021-PAE-MIB
OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xAuthAuthTimeoutsWhileAuthenticating
OID (numeric): 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.2.3.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: Counts the number of times that the state machine transitions from AUTHENTICATING to ABORTING, as a result of the Backend Authentication state machine indicating authentication timeout (authTimeout = TRUE).
What is dot1xAuthAuthTimeoutsWhileAuthenticating?
This object counts how many times a device failed to complete 802.1X authentication because the backend authentication server did not respond within the timeout period. A network security administrator tracks this counter to identify authentication server reliability issues or excessive network latency. Increasing values suggest problems with RADIUS/TACACS+ connectivity or performance.
