> I don't think this is correct, since we are verifying the node authentication status after request being disconnected. Do you recall the reasoning for calling this API like this? @hachikuji Thanks for your review. The node authentication status is updated by **NetworkClient.processDisconnection** , so the node authentication status is **known** after disconnecting. **NetworkClient.authenticationException** just read the status of the node, not realy connect it. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
