What is nwWDCurrentState?

This reports the Watchdog process's current state, such as waiting, actively sending packets, or clearing stale stations. Admins check it to see whether the Watchdog mechanism is actively cleaning up dead connections at a given moment; note this feature is only meaningful on NetWare 4.0 and will always read unknown on 3.11.
