Description Frantisek Reznicek 2012-08-21 13:36:14 UTC 
Description of problem:

qpid-stat -c shows details about live qpidd connections.

There are mech and auth columns which should help user to gather information whether clients are requesting authentication.

Apparently provided information does not reflect whether authentication is even done.

For instance when broker run in auth=no:

[root@mrg-qe-01 ~]# qpid-stat -c
Connections
  client-addr                          mech        auth         connected
  =======================================================================
  10.3x.33.54:5672-10.3x.26.251:40860  guest@QPID  -2938063773  0s       
  10.3x.33.54:5672-10.3x.26.251:40861  guest@QPID  -2942858705  0s       
  10.3x.33.54:5672-10.3x.26.251:40862  guest@QPID  -2947812637  0s       
  127.0.0.1:5672-127.0.0.1:39512       anonymous   -5096273974  0s       

in auth=yes:
Connections
  client-addr                          mech            auth         connected
  ===========================================================================
  10.3x.33.54:5672-10.3x.26.251:40878  guest@QPID      785161405    0s       
  10.3x.33.54:5672-10.3x.26.251:40879  guest@QPID      780000858    0s       
  127.0.0.1:5672-127.0.0.1:39516       anonymous@QPID  -1594676636  0s       
  10.3x.33.54:5672-10.3x.26.251:40877  guest@QPID      790342704    0s       

So in other words there is no information in the table whether requested mechanism is used or not which is misleading.

qpid-stat -c table should somehow inform the user that mechanism is requested, but finally not used.
There are multiple ways how to do that:
- adding column for negotiated authentication method
or
- closing mech value in brackets when it is not used (guest@QPID)

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. qpidd in auth=no and then auth=yes
2a. qpid-perftest -b <host> -s --user guest --password guest --mechanism PLAIN
2b. qpid-perftest -b <host> -s --user guest --password guest --mechanism ANONYMOUS
3. qpid-stat -c
  
Actual results:
It is not clear whether information from mech column refers to requested or established authentication mode.

Expected results:
It should be clear what mech column represents and user should get information whether listed authentication mode is used.

The problem is still present in the latest build:

[root@lzhaldyb-rhel63x ~]# qpid-stat -c

  client-addr             cproc          cpid  auth            connected  idle  msgIn  msgOut

As this qpid-stat output shows, the "mech" column is not shown at all now. I'm returning this back to assigned.
