Disconnect Messages Meaning
These are exact terminating messages standardized in RFC 2866 (RADIUS Accounting) defining under Section 5.10: Acct-Terminate-Cause (Attribute 49)
These are the codes NAS (router) sends to Free-RADIUS in an accounting-stop packet. Here is a complete list of 18 standard Acct-terminate-cause messages defined by RFC.
RFC 2866: Acct-Terminate-Cause Values
| Code | Message | Real-World Meaning |
| 1 | User Request | The user cleanly and explicitly disconnected (e.g., logged out or clicked disconnect). |
| 2 | Lost Carrier | The physical or wireless link dropped unexpectedly (e.g., out of Wi-Fi range or unplugged cable). |
| 3 | Lost Service | The NAS can no longer provide the service to the user, usually due to an upstream failure. |
| 4 | Idle Timeout | The user was inactive for too long, and the NAS disconnected them to save resources. |
| 5 | Session Timeout | The user reached their absolute maximum allowed connection time. |
| 6 | Admin Reset | An administrator manually terminated the session or reset the specific port. |
| 7 | Admin Reboot | An administrator cleanly restarted the NAS, closing all active sessions gracefully. |
| 8 | Port Error | The NAS detected a hardware or data-link protocol error on that specific port. |
| 9 | NAS Error | The NAS experienced an internal error (not specific to the port) that forced the disconnect. |
| 10 | NAS Request | The NAS intentionally ended the session for a routine, non-error reason (like a policy update). |
| 11 | NAS Reboot | The NAS crashed or lost power and is reporting this after booting back up. |
| 12 | Port Unneeded | The NAS decided the connection is no longer required (rare in modern Wi-Fi, mostly used in dial-up/ISDN). |
| 13 | Port Preempted | The NAS disconnected the user to give the port/resources to a higher-priority connection. |
| 14 | Port Suspended | The NAS temporarily suspended the session (the user may be reconnected later). |
| 15 | Service Unavailable | The NAS could not deliver the specific service or parameters requested during authorization. |
| 16 | Callback | The NAS ended the initial session to immediately dial back/reconnect the user (legacy dial-in security). |
| 17 | User Error | The user's device sent incorrect, malformed, or invalid input that forced a disconnect. |
| 18 | Host Request | The destination login host (the server the user was ultimately connecting to) terminated the session. |
