The Markomanni and Quadi can be named foederati, even if the term was not used in the Roman sources of that time. Trajan demanded troops from them. They fought in tribal dress. Some nobles may have got Roman stuff but most not.
The auxilia was a regular Roman force, recruited among non Romans but equiped by the Romans.

Modern research showed that the difference between Legio and Auxilia equipment was not so strict as long thought. We know now even auxilia with scutum and lorica segmentata.
