5.2.1.2.1 Initial Resource Reservation
|
When the lower-tier x-RACF receives a reservation request in which the Session-Id is new, it is interpreted by the lower-tier x-RACF as a new resource reservation session. An initial AA-Request may contain one or more Media-Component-Description AVP(s) optionally including one or more Media-Sub-Component AVP(s). If the initial AA-Request does not contain any Media-Component-Description AVP(s), the lower-tier x-RACF will establish the Diameter session as the idle state without further operations. Upon reception of an AF-Application-Identifier AVP in an initial AA-Request from the top-tier x-RACF, the lower-tier x-RACF shall store this identifier together with the states created and maintained for the new session for the purpose of charging correlation between AF and RACS. The identifier is opaque to the lower-tier x-RACF. As defined in ES 282 003 [2], the top-tier x-RACF identifies a QoS profile based on the Subscriber ID and/or the Globally Unique IP Address. The QoS profile includes the Physical Access ID, Logical Access ID and Access Network Type. The lower-tier x-RACF does not interact with the NASS directly. Instead, the top-tier x-RACF maintains the QoS profiles, selects the right one and pushes the relevant information (e.g. QoS info) down to the lower-tier x-RACF. To identify a specific customer on the lower-tier x-RACF, the top-tier x-RACF shall convey the Logical Access ID, and optionally the Globally Unique IP Address. The mapping of these parameters to the Diameter AVPs is described in table 5.4. If the lower-tier x-RACF does not receive one of these parameters at least the Logical-Access-Id AVP, it shall return an AA-Answer that include a Result-Code AVP set to the value DIAMETER_MISSING_AVP. The Failed-AVP AVP should be included in the message. The Failed-AVP AVP must contain an example of the missing AVP. The value field of the missing AVP example should be of correct minimum length and contain zeroes. Table 5.4: Mapping of information element names to Diameter AVPs Information element name Mapping to Diameter AVP Categorie Logical Access ID (The identity of the logical access to which the user equipment is connected. See note) Logical-Access-Id M Subscriber ID in RACS [2] and in NASS [3] User-Name O Globally Unique IP Address in RACS [2] and in NASS [3] Globally-Unique-Address O Requestor Name in RACS [2] AF-Application-Identifier O Media Type in NASS [3] and in RACS [2] Media-Type O Reservation Class in RACS [2] Reservation-Class O Transport Service Class in RACS [2] and in NASS [3] Transport-Class O Service Class in RACS [2] Service-Class O NOTE: The Logical Access ID identifies the logical access used by the attached user equipment. In the xDSL case, the Logical Access ID may explicitly contain the identifier of VP and/or VC carrying the traffic. Can be used as the agent circuit ID present in DHCP option 82, including <Access-Node-Identifier> atm <rack>/<shelf>/<slot>/<DSL-Line>:<VPI.<VCI>. Any value of the Flow-Status AVP received in an initial AA-Request (in which the Session-Id is new) different from ENABLED-UPLINK, ENABLED-DOWNLINK, ENABLED or DISABLED shall result in an error. If the Flow-Status AVP has the value REMOVED the lower-tier x-RACF shall return an AA-Answer containing a Failed-AVP AVP and a Result-Code AVP with the value DIAMETER_INVALID_AVP_VALUE. In case the operation fails due to lack of resources, the lower-tier x-RACF shall include the Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to the value INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES. An initial reservation request can be admitted by the lower-tier x-RACF if for all media streams in the session, the resource requirements fit within the constraints of remaining envelopes of unused resources. The lower-tier x-RACF is presumed to exhibit "atomic" reservation semantics (i.e. either all reservations are admitted, or none of them). Once a reservation is admitted, the corresponding amount of resources is removed from the pool of available resources. ETSI ETSI TS 183 071 V3.1.1 (2010-02) 16 If the request is admitted the lower-tier x-RACF must send an AA-Answer back to the top-tier x-RACF and include the Result-Code AVP set to the value DIAMETER_SUCCESS. Upon successful reservation, the lower-tier x-RACF shall store the Diameter base protocol Session-Id received in the AA-Request through which the initial reservation request was made, and the Media-Component-Number(s) and Flow-Number(s). The AA-Request may contain the Authorization-Lifetime AVP. The lower-tier x-RACF shall interpret the presence of the Authorization-Lifetime AVP as a request for a soft-state reservation and the absence of this AVP as a request for a hard-state reservation. The lower-tier x-RACF may however return the Authorization-Lifetime AVP or the pair of Authorization-Lifetime AVP and Auth-Grace-Period AVP although the AA-Request did not contain the Authorization-Lifetime AVP. The lower-tier x-RACF thereby offers a soft-state reservation although the request was for hard-state. The lower-tier x-RACF may also choose not to return the Authorization-Lifetime AVP and the Auth-Grace-Period AVP although the AA-Request contained the Authorization-Lifetime AVP. The lower-tier x-RACF thereby offers a hard-state reservation although the request was for soft-state reservation. The Authorization-Lifetime indicates when the lower-tier x-RACF expects a Refresh from the top-tier x-RACF. The Auth-Grace-Period AVP can only be specified in addition to the Authorization-Lifetime AVP. As specified in clause 8.9 of RFC 3588 [8] the Diameter server (i.e. the lower-tier x-RACF) may return the Authorization-Lifetime AVP set to a value equal to, or smaller than the value of the Authorization-Lifetime AVP provided by the top-tier x-RACF. The lower-tier x-RACF may include one or more Session-Bundle-Id AVPs in the AA-Answer. The Session-Bundle-Id AVP identifies a group of sessions to which the session belongs. The value of this AVP and the sessions that belong to a certain such value are chosen by the lower-tier x-RACF. The value of the Session-Bundle-Id AVP is meaningful only for the lower-tier x-RACF. If the Specific-Action AVP is included in the initial AA-Request, notification for the given event(s) shall be activated by the lower-tier x-RACF. The supported events are listed in clause 6.5.8.

5.2.1.2.2 Resource Modification and Release for Media Flows
|
When the lower-tier x-RACF receives requests in which both the Session-Id and the Media-Component-Number(s) and Flow-Number(s) of existing reservations are existing ones, it performs the resource admission and reservation for modified flows. An AA-Request issued to modify an existing session may contain zero or more Media-Component-Description AVP(s) optionally including one or more Media-Sub-Component AVP(s). Media-Component-Number(s) and Flow-Number(s) of new Media-Component-Description AVP(s) and Media-Sub-Component AVP(s) are interpreted by the lower-tier x-RACF as new ones. For an AA-Request issuing a session modification operation the Flow-Status AVP must be set to a value representing a state to which the session is allowed to enter from its current state. Should the Flow-Status AVP be set to a disallowed value the lower-tier x-RACF shall return an AA-Answer containing a Failed-AVP AVP and a Result-Code AVP with the value DIAMETER_INVALID_AVP_VALUE. In the case the lower-tier x-RACF also needs to control the enforcement of the resources, if the lower-tier x-RACF is unable to modify the status of a reservation to ENABLED-UPLINK, ENABLED-DOWNLINK or ENABLED, the lower-tier x-RACF shall issue an error message to the top-tier x-RACF with an Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to the value COMMIT_FAILURE. If the status of a reservation is one of the values ENABLED-UPLINK, ENABLED-DOWNLINK or ENABLED, the AA-Request should not contain a Flow-Status AVP set to DISABLED. If it does, the lower-tier x-RACF shall return an AA-Answer to the top-tier x-RACF with an Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to the value MODIFICATION_FAILURE. If the lower-tier x-RACF is not able to re-initialize the lifetime of the reservation, it shall return an AA-Answer to the top-tier x-RACF with an Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to the value REFRESH_FAILURE. If a flow-level operation fails, the entire Resource Modification operation fails. In the case the lower-tier x-RACF determines that the request cannot be admitted due to insufficient resources, it shall return an Experimental-Result-Code AVP to the top-tier x-RACF set to the value INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES. In case the Specific-Action AVP, the AF-Charging-Identifier AVP, the User-Name AVP or the Globally-Unique- Address AVP was provided in an initial AA-Request with a value different from the value of the AVP(s) in a modifying AA-Request, the lower-tier x-RACF shall return an AA-Answer containing a Failed-AVP AVP and a Result-Code AVP with the value DIAMETER_INVALID_AVP_VALUE. Upon successful session modification, the lower-tier x-RACF must send an AA-Answer back to the top-tier x-RACF with the Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_SUCCESS. ETSI ETSI TS 183 071 V3.1.1 (2010-02) 17 Upon a successful refresh operation, the lower-tier x-RACF shall in the AA-Answer return the Authorization-Lifetime AVP with a value equal or smaller than the Authorization-Lifetime AVP of the AA-Request (if any). The Auth-Grace-Period AVP can only be specified in addition to the Authorization-Lifetime AVP. Whether Authorization-Lifetime AVP and Auth-Grace-Period AVP need to be specified in the AA-Answer is a local decision for the lower-tier x-RACF. If a reference to a previously negotiated Media-Component-Description AVP and/or Media-Sub-Component AVP for the session in question is omitted in the AA-Request, the corresponding flow is not impacted by the Modification operation.

5.2.1.2.3 Termination and Release of the Resources for a Resource Reservation Session
|
If all resources within an established resource reservation session need to be terminated, the lower-tier x-RACF shall inform the top-tier x-RACF about this event by sending an Abort-Session-Request (ASR) message with the appropriate Abort-Cause AVP value, and all resources within the authorized session will be released. The lower-tier x-RACF may include one or more Session-Bundle-Id AVPs in order to inform the top-tier x-RACF of that several sessions identified by the provided Session-Bundle-Id AVP(s) are terminated. Upon receipt of a Session-Termination-Request (STR) message from the top-tier x-RACF the lower-tier x-RACF shall release all the resources associated with the session identified through the provided Session-Id AVP. If an unknown Session-Id is provided in the STR the lower-tier x-RACF shall return a Session-Termination-Answer (STA) message to the top-tier x-RACF with the Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_UNKNOWN_SESSION_ID.

5.2.1.2.4 Event Notification
|
If an event for which notification is required occurs, the lower-tier x-RACF shall send an unsolicited Re-Auth-Request (RAR) message to the top-tier x-RACF containing: • The value of the Specific-Action AVP, indicating the event that occurred. • Optionally, the appropriate Abort-Cause AVP value.

5.2.2.1.1 Procedures at the delegating x-RACF
|
The delegating x-RACF shall obtain the address of the delegated x-RACF entity where the information should be pushed (e.g. from configuration data). The delegating x-RACF shall populate the Push-Notification-Request as follows: • The Network-Resource-Id AVP shall be present and shall contain the identifier of the network resource to be delegated. • At least one of Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP shall be present. • The presence of Total-Bandwidth-UL and Total-Bandwidth-DL AVP depends on the network resource and local policy rules. The Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL, Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL, Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL, Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL and Reservation-priority AVPs shall not be present.

5.2.2.1.2 Procedures at the delegated x-RACF
|
On receipt of the Push-Notification-Request with at least either of the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVPs, the delegated x-RACF take the Push-Notification-Request as the delegation push request. If there is no delegation record with the network resource identifier contained in the Network-Resource-Id AVP as a key, the delegated x-RACF shall create an internal record to store the received information for future use. If there is a delegation record with the network resource identifier contained in the Network-Resource-Id AVP as a key, the delegated x-RACF shall replace the entire content of the internal record with the received information for future use. Such an update shall not have any impact on ongoing application sessions for which an authorization has already been provided by the delegating x-RACF. If the contents of the request are invalid the delegated x-RACF shall return a Push-Notification-Answer with a Result-Code AVP value set to the appropriate value as described in clause 5.1. If the delegated x-RACF cannot fulfil the received request for reasons not stated in the above steps, e.g. due to database error, it shall stop processing the request and return a Push-Notification-Answer with a Result-Code AVP value set to DIAMETER_UNABLE_TO_COMPLY or an Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE. In the later case, the delegating x-RACF is expected to retry after a provisioned time period. Otherwise, the requested operation shall take place and the delegated x-RACF shall return the Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_SUCCESS in the Push-Notification-Answer. The Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL should not be present in the Push-Notification-Answer.

The delegated x-RACF shall populate the User-Data-Request as follows: • The Network-Resource-Id AVP shall be present and shall contain the identifier of the network resource to be delegated. • At least one of the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP shall be present. • The Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL, Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL and Reservation-priority AVPs may be present optionally. If the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL AVP is not present, the Preferred- Delegated-Bandwidth-UL AVP shall not be present. If the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP is not present, the Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP shall not be present. On receipt of the corresponding User-Data-Answer with the Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_SUCCESS and at least either of the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVPs, the delegated x-RACF updates the corresponding content of the internal record with the received information for future use (e.g. allocating the resource for pending application sessions).

5.2.2.2.2 Procedures at the delegating x-RACF
|
On receipt of the User-Data-Request with at least either of the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Required- Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVPs, the delegating x-RACF takes the User-Data-Request as the delegation negotiation request. ETSI ETSI TS 183 071 V3.1.1 (2010-02) 19 If the contents of the request are invalid the delegating x-RACF shall return a User-Data-Answer with a Result-Code AVP value set to the appropriate value as described in clause 5.1. The delegating x-RACF shall, in the following order: 1) If the network resource identified by the Network-Resource-Id AVP is unknown or is not handled in the delegating x-RACF or is not allowed to be delegated to the delegated x-RACF, return a User-Data-Answer with the Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to NETWORK_RESOURCE_UNAVAILABLE. 2) If the network resource identified by the Network-Resource-Id AVP is handled in the delegating x-RACF and is allowed to be delegated to the delegated x-RACF, decide if the delegated bandwidth can be changed to the value indicated by the messages for each requested direction. a) If Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP is present and the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to be delegated can be changed to the amount carried in this AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegating x-RACF and violating any policy rules in the delegating x-RACF, the delegating x-RACF changes the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to the amount carried in the Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP. b) If Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP is not present or the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can not be changed to the value carried in the Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegating x-RACF and violating any policy rules in the delegating x-RACF, the delegating x-RACF decides if the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can be changed to the value indicated by the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP: i) If the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can be changed to the value carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegating x-RACF and violating any policy rules in the delegating x-RACF, the delegating x-RACF changes the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to the amount carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP. ii) If the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can not be changed to the value carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegating x-RACF and violating any policy rules in the delegating x-RACF, and if the Reservation-priority AVP is present, the delegating x-RACF evaluates if the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can reach the value carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP by releasing sufficient ongoing application sessions with lower reservation priority than the value carried in the Reservation-priority AVP. If it can, then the delegating x-RACF releases sufficient ongoing application sessions with lower reservation priority, and changes the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to the amount carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP. c) If either direction of the delegated bandwidth can not be changed as requested in the above steps, the delegating x-RACF shall return a User-Data-Answer with the Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to NETWORK_RESOURCE_INSUFFICIENT. Otherwise, the delegating x-RACF shall return a User-Data-Answer with the Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_SUCCESS and with the delegated bandwidth(s) in both or either of the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP. If the uplink delegated bandwidth is requested, the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL AVP must be included in the successful answer. If the downlink delegated bandwidth is requested, the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP must be included in the successful answer.

5.2.2.3.2 Procedures at the delegated x-RACF
|
On receipt of the Push-Notification-Request with at least either of the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVPs, the delegated x-RACF takes the Push-Notification-Request as the delegation negotiation request. If the contents of the request are invalid the delegated x-RACF shall return a Push-Notification-Answer with a Result-Code AVP value set to the appropriate value as described in clause 5.1. The delegated x-RACF shall, in the following order: 1) If there is no delegation record with the network resource identifier contained in the Network-Resource-Id AVP as a key, return a Push-Notification-Answer with the Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to NETWORK_RESOURCE_UNAVAILABLE. 2) If there is a delegation record with the network resource identifier contained in the Network-Resource-Id AVP as a key, decide if the delegated bandwidth can be changed to the value indicated by the messages for each requested direction. a) If Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP is present and the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to be delegated can be changed to the amount carried in this AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegated x-RACF, the delegated x-RACF changes the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to the amount carried in the Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP. b) If Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP is not present or the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can not be changed to the value carried in the Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Preferred-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegated x-RACF, the delegated x-RACF decides if the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can be changed to the value indicated by the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP: i) If the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can be changed to the value carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegated x-RACF, the delegated x-RACF changes the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to the amount carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP. ETSI ETSI TS 183 071 V3.1.1 (2010-02) 21 ii) If the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can not be changed to the value carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP without affecting the ongoing application sessions admitted by the delegated x-RACF, and if the Reservation-priority AVP is present, the delegated x-RACF evaluates if the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth can reach the value carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth- DL) AVP by releasing sufficient ongoing application sessions with lower reservation priority than the value carried in the Reservation-priority AVP. If it can, then the delegated x-RACF releases sufficient ongoing application sessions with lower reservation priority, and changes the uplink (downlink) delegated bandwidth to the amount carried in the Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL (Required-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL) AVP. c) If either direction of the delegated bandwidth can not be changed as requested in the above steps, the delegated x-RACF shall return a Push-Notification-Answer with the Experimental-Result-Code AVP set to NETWORK_RESOURCE_INSUFFICIENT. Otherwise, the delegated x-RACF shall return a Push-Notification-Answer with the Result-Code AVP set to DIAMETER_SUCCESS and with the delegated bandwidth(s) in both or either of the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL and Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP. If the uplink delegated bandwidth is requested, the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-UL AVP must be included in the successful answer. If the downlink delegated bandwidth is requested, the Granted-Delegated-Bandwidth-DL AVP must be included in the successful answer.

5.2.2.5 Delegation Query triggered by the delegated x-RACF
|
This procedure is used for the delegated x-RACF to query the delegation from the delegating x-RACF. This information flow occurs normally when the delegated x-RACF discovers there is a possibility of inconsistency of the delegation between the delegated x-RACF and the delegating x-RACF. This procedure is mapped to the commands User-Data-Request/Answer in the Diameter application specified in clause 7.

6.1 Use of the Diameter base protocol
|
The Rr protocol is based on Diameter (RFC 3588 [8]). The Diameter Base Protocol as specified in RFC 3588 [8] used to support information transfer on the Rr interface. RFC 3588 [8] shall apply except as modified by the defined Rr application specific procedures, Attribute-Value Pairs (AVPs) as well as Experimental-Result-Code AVP and Specific-Action AVP values defined in the present document. Unless otherwise specified, the procedures of RFC 3588 [8] (including error handling and unrecognized information handling) are unmodified. In addition to the AVPs defined in clause 7.3, the Diameter AVPs from the Diameter base application (RFC 3588 [8]) are reused within the Diameter messages sent over the Rr reference point. The support of AVPs from the Diameter Network Access Server Application (NASREQ) (RFC 4005 [9]) is not required for Diameter implementations that conform to the present document. Accounting functionality (Accounting Session State Machine, related command codes and AVPs) is not used in the Rr specification. With regard to the Diameter protocol defined over the Rr reference point for request model, the lower-tier x-RACF acts as a Diameter server, in the sense that it is the network element that handles authorization requests for a particular realm. The top-tier x-RACF acts as the Diameter Client, in the sense that is the network element requesting authorization to use bearer path network resources. The support of Diameter agents between the lower-tier x-RACF and the top-tier x-RACF, is optional where the Rr is intra operator i.e. lower-tier x-RACF and top-tier x-RACF are all in the same domain.

|
The Capabilities-Exchange-Request (CER) and Capabilities-Exchange-Answer (CEA) commands are specified in the Diameter Base Protocol RFC 3588 [8]. The top-tier x-RACF and lower-tier x-RACF shall advertise the support of the Rr specific application for request model by including the value 16777278 of the application identifier in the Auth-Application-Id AVP within the Vendor-Specific-Application-Id grouped AVP of the Capabilities-Exchange-Request and Capabilities- Exchange-Answer commands. The vendor identifier value of ETSI (13019) shall be included in the Vendor-Id AVP of the Capabilities-Exchange- Request and Capabilities-Exchange-Answer commands, and in the Vendor-Id AVP within the Vendor-Specific- Application-Id grouped AVP of the Capabilities-Exchange-Request and Capabilities-Exchange-Answer commands. Additionally, the top-tier x-RACF and the lower-tier x-RACF shall advertise the support of additional Vendor-ID AVPs by including the values 10415 (3GPP) in different Supported-Vendor-Id AVP of the CER and CEA commands. NOTE: The Vendor-Id AVP included in Capabilities-Exchange-Request and Capabilities-Exchange-Answer commands that is not included in the Vendor-Specific-Application-Id AVPs as described above indicates the manufacturer of the Diameter node as per RFC 3588 [8].

|
183 071
|
7.1.3 Use of sessions
|
Diameter sessions are implicitly terminated. An implicitly terminated session is one for which the server does not maintain state information. The client does not need to send any re-authorization or session termination requests to the server. The Diameter base protocol includes the Auth-Session-State AVP as the mechanism for the implementation of implicitly terminated sessions. The client (server) shall include in its requests (responses) the Auth-Session-State AVP set to the value NO_STATE_MAINTAINED (1), as described in RFC 3588 [8]. As a consequence, the server does not maintain any state information about this session and the client does not need to send any session termination request. Neither the Authorization-Lifetime AVP nor the Session-Timeout AVP shall be present in requests or responses.

7.1.5 Routing considerations
|
This clause specifies the use of the Diameter routing AVPs Destination-Realm and Destination-Host. Requests initiated by the delegating x-RACF towards the RACS shall include both Destination-Host and Destination-Realm AVPs. The delegating x-RACF obtains the Destination-Host AVP to use in requests towards a delegated x-RACF, from configuration data and/or the NASS User profile. Consequently, the Destination-Host AVP is declared as mandatory in the ABNF for all requests initiated by the delegating x-RACF. Requests initiated by the delegated x-RACF towards the delegating x-RACF shall include both Destination-Host and Destination-Realm AVPs. The delegated x-RACF obtains the Destination-Host AVP to use in requests towards a delegating x-RACF, from the Origin-Host and Origin-Realm AVPs received in previous commands from the delegating x-RACF. Consequently, the Destination-Host AVP is declared as mandatory in the ABNF for all requests initiated by the delegated x-RACF. Destination-Realm AVP is declared as mandatory in the ABNF for all requests.
