I believe that newer wifi access points will be able to include location information to E911 services. http://www.arubanetworks.com/pdf/partners/SB_RedSky.pdf http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/wireless-location-appliance/product_data_sheet0900aecd80293728.html How many access point vendors are going to jump on board remains to be seen.

We mainly were using it to compare against itself, especially the retransmissions. There were some telltale signs that we were having controller problems and a spike in retransmissions was a big one.

The WiSM sends Access-Request (type 1) and the radius server answers with Auth-Challenge (type 11). This repeats back and forth many times until the radius server finally answers the final Auth-Request with either an Auth-Accept (type 2) or Auth-Reject (type 3). Just be clear what you're counting when comparing with other institutions or you will be off by quite a bit.
