Description: The current value of the Authenticator PAE state machine.

What is dot1xAuthPaeState?

Reports the Authenticator PAE state machine's current state for this port — values like connecting, authenticating, authenticated, or held — letting an admin see exactly where a stuck 802.1X client is stalled, such as a client parked in held(7) after repeated authentication failures.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.2.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xAuthPaeState

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.2.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xAuthPaeState.1
