[srslte-users] UL NAS: Authentication Failure MAC code failure

Wed Sep 15 14:01:53 UTC 2021

Adding some details from the log... thanks to whoever may be able to help..
I triple checked the opc and ki... I am pretty sure they are correct. Maybe
I messed with the
# AMF:      Authentication management field, stored in hexadecimal

# SQN:      UE's Sequence number for freshness of the authentication
