Yes, you are correct. It's CoovaChilli who "sends" that data to the
UAM through user redirection.

It should already be passing that information to the UAM. Check the
'res' and 'reason' URL parameters.

>From `redir_reply()` function: statuses of the redirection (res=):

 * already (Already logged in)
 * failed (This can also set the parameter reason=)
 * reject (Login rejected by RADIUS)
 * timeout
 * mtu
 * other
 * success
 * logoff

Cheers,
