Wireshark identifies Acc-Status-Type value 3 as "Alive":

Radius Protocol
    Code: Accounting-Request (4)
    Packet identifier: 0x23 (35)
    Length: 1433
    Authenticator: f8b387eb356e22a799fa35c598546a1c
    [The response to this request is in frame 2]
    Attribute Value Pairs
        AVP: l=6  t=Acct-Status-Type(40): Alive(3)
            Acct-Status-Type: Alive (3)
    .....


RFC2866 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2866#section-5.1) section 5.1 describes
Acct-Status-Type and it's values:

Value

      The Value field is four octets.

       1      Start
       2      Stop
       3      Interim-Update
       7      Accounting-On
       8      Accounting-Off
       9-14   Reserved for Tunnel Accounting
      15      Reserved for Failed

So, it means that a value should be interpreted "Interim-Update".
