dot1xAuthBackendOtherRequestsToSupplicant

Module: IEEE8021-PAE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xAuthBackendOtherRequestsToSupplicant

OID (numeric): 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.2.3.1.15

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: Counts the number of times that the state machine sends an EAP-Request packet (other than an Identity, Notification, Failure or Success message) to the Supplicant (i.e., executes txReq on entry to the REQUEST state). Indicates that the Authenticator chose an EAP-method.

What is dot1xAuthBackendOtherRequestsToSupplicant?

Counts how many times this port's Authenticator sent an EAP-Request (beyond the initial identity/notification/failure/success types) to the Supplicant, marking that the server-chosen EAP method (e.g. TLS or PEAP) has begun its challenge exchange.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.2.3.1.15
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xAuthBackendOtherRequestsToSupplicant

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.2.3.1.15.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xAuthBackendOtherRequestsToSupplicant.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot1xAuthBackendOtherRequestsToSupplicant.1
