Operation failed with status WAITING

My first learning objective on EJB is to establish a connection to the server and then return a value, say 5063, to the client. Thus, I have the following piece on server side:

@Remote
public interface AuthenticationRemote {

 public int status();
}


@Stateless
@LocalBean
public class Authentication implements AuthenticationRemote {

    /**
     * Default constructor. 
     */
    public Authentication() {
    }

 @Override
 public int status() {
  return 5063;
 }

}

The project name for the pieces above, ejb2, will be the context path used by a client to identify the remote path of a specific method call. When the piece is deployed to the server, following log would be seen:

java:global/ejb2/Authentication!org.huahsin.AuthenticationRemote
java:app/ejb2/Authentication!org.huahsin.AuthenticationRemote
java:module/Authentication!org.huahsin.AuthenticationRemote
java:jboss/exported/ejb2/Authentication!org.huahsin.AuthenticationRemote
java:global/ejb2/Authentication!org.huahsin.Authentication
java:app/ejb2/Authentication!org.huahsin.Authentication
java:module/Authentication!org.huahsin.Authentication

On the client side, as in following piece, is a separate project which will establish a connection to the above piece:

public class EjbClient {

 public static void main(String args[]) throws NamingException {
  Properties props = new Properties();
  props.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.jboss.ejb.client.naming");
  props.put("java.naming.factory.initial", "org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory");
  props.put("java.naming.provider.url", "remote://127.0.0.1:4447");
  props.put("jboss.naming.client.ejb.context", "true");
  props.put("jboss.naming.client.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOPLAINTEXT","false");
  
  InitialContext context = new InitialContext(props);
  
  String appName = "";
  String moduleName = "ejb2";
  String distinctName = "";
  String beanName = Authentication.class.getSimpleName();
  String interfaceName = AuthenticationRemote.class.getName();
  String name = "ejb:" + appName + "/" + moduleName + "/" + distinctName + "/" + beanName + "!" + interfaceName;
  
  AuthenticationRemote bean = (AuthenticationRemote) context.lookup(name);
  int result = bean.status();
 }
}

I was so unlucky that I was failed to establish a connection to server. End I up I get this:

But later I found out I forgot to turn on my server. Finally, the result variable is returning the value of 5063.
