Sessions

The State Server Sessions screen is used to monitor the 8950 AAA Universal State Server
(USS). It contains three tabs and one performance monitor, as shown in

Figure 17-13

.

To the USS, a network session is an occupied port on a specific client. A session is defined
by a series of RADIUS requests that pertain to the particular port and client. The
performance monitor displays graphical data for monitoring up to three types of sessions:

Active Sessions–Sessions that are currently running.

Inactive Sessions–Sessions that have terminated.

Waiting for Start–Sessions that have been authenticated but for which no
accounting Start record has been received.

Below is a graphical depiction of the session types.
