Hi all,

There seem to be a problem with the peer state machine. State
Wait-Conn-Ack/Elect is not reachable to the connection initiator (it is not
a 'next state' of any initiator state), yet initiator events are expected in
this state (I-Rcv-Conn-Ack and I-Rcv-Conn-Nack).
Any idea?

Regards,
Gil Shafran

Hi all,

Wolfgang Fritsche has made a review of the Diameter Mobile IPv6: NAS <-> 
HAAA Support document. You find it in the attachment. 
Thank you, Wolfgang.

Ciao
Hannes

----------------------------------


Dear Hannes,

here are my review comments:

 From the failover point of view the HA reliability DT of the mip6 WG 
currently follows an approach, which only involves the HAs themselves 
and (for the hard switch mode) the MN. As there is no AAA functionality 
involved in that, consequently no interfaces are required. Within ENABLE 
we see this somehow different. We definitively think the MSP AAA 
functionality has to be involved in the HA reliability approach, at 
least to be updated with the recently chosen HA. This is work we foresee 
to perform in 2007, so at the current time we've not progressed far 
enough to talk about required AAA interfaces, however, most likely it 
won't influence the NAS - AAAH interface, but more the HA - AAAH (and 
also the HA - AAAF, that is MSP AAA) interface.

 From a load sharing point of view, my main comments would be related to 
figure 8 and chapter 7. Currently this shows in message 2 how the NAS 
could provide to the AAAH (MSA AAA) in the DER message a proposal for a 
local HA assignment (address of FQDN of local HA), which then could 
selected by the AAAH. In ENABLE we see this somewhat different. The DER 
message sent to the AAAH (MSA AAA) won't contain any MIPv6 specific 
information when sent from the NAS to the AAAF (MSP AAA). Then the MSP 
AAA will include some MIPv6 features when forwarding the DER to the MSA 
AAA, indicating e.g. that the MSP is supporting local HA assignment, or 
that it supports MIPv6 extensions to the DHCPv6 on the NAS. The MSA AAA 
will then reply with a DEA, which could contain a MIPv6 authorization on 
its way to the MSP AAA, authorizing local HA assignment. If authorized, 
the MSP AAA will trigger HA selection (which is performed on the basis 
of HA load sharing), and provides back the selected HA within the DEA 
message to the NAS. Consequently the main differences between the ID and 
the ENABLE work are:
- In ENABLE it is the MSP AAA and not the NAS which negotiates MIPv6 
features with the MSA AAA
- In ENABLE it is also the MSP AAA which finally selects the most 
suitable local HA based on load sharing, and not the NAS
- ENABLE performs HA selection based on load sharing only after 
authorization for local HA assignment by the MSA

Additionally I found some typos:
- In chapter 7.1 you mixed up under [d] "MIP6-Home-Link-Prefix" with 
"MIP6-Home-Agent-Address"
- In chapter 7.1 you mixed up under [d] "MIP6-Home-Address" with 
"MIP6-Home-Agent-FQDN"
- In chapter 7.2 you mixed up under [d] "MIP6-Home-Link-Prefix" with 
"MIP6-Home-Agent-Address"
- In chapter 7.2 you mixed up under [d] "MIP6-Home-Address" with 
"MIP6-Home-Agent-FQDN"
- In chapter 7.2 under [d] it should be "AAA Command" instead of "AAR 
Command"

Cheers,

Wolfgang

Hi Gil,

I think because during election, a peer is both an initiator and a 
responder so you have I-Rcv-Conn-Ack and I-Rcv-Conn-Nack while on 
Wait-Conn-Ack/Elect state.

victor

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: The Diameter API
	Author(s)	: P. Calhoun, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-01.txt
	Pages		: 45
	Date		: 2007-2-1
	
The Diameter authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
   protocol provides support for peering AAA transactions across the
   Internet.  This document describes a standardized API for the
   Diameter protocol.  The API is defined for the C language.  The
   intent of the API is to foster source code portability across
   multiple programming platforms.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-01.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to 
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of 
the message. 
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce 
to change your subscription settings.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then 
"get draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-01.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-01.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: The Diameter API
	Author(s)	: P. Calhoun, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-01.txt
	Pages		: 45
	Date		: 2007-2-1
	
The Diameter authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
   protocol provides support for peering AAA transactions across the
   Internet.  This document describes a standardized API for the
   Diameter protocol.  The API is defined for the C language.  The
   intent of the API is to foster source code portability across
   multiple programming platforms.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

If you don't want to do EAP-TLS because of the roundtrips involved in
EAP-TLS and just want to use Diameter to check a cert, then it is a cert
status checking signaling through Diameter.
If you understand your scenario, you want to authenticate an ID that an end
user application client is using for that application by using a private key
and send a cert along to prove it. The application  server cannot check the
cert, so it resorts to the Diameter infrastructure to hit the CA or Cert
status checking server.

Isn't this your scenario?

Yes there are other protocols that pass certs and these would likely be
used as the backend for the Diameter Server. I.e. the Diameter Server is
the application to these existing protocols. We just don't want to have
to do two dips and that is why we want to transport the cert with
Diameter - get it all done with one transaction from the Diameter
client/Application Server perspective - not two.

Hmm -- that's not what I'm getting at all, but if you're right it seems
like there are already at least a couple of other standard protocols
that do this...

It is understandable to not want to touch the app. However, it seems that
the authentication and application authorization (using the cert) needs to
happen before the application starts, so how do you want to handle the AAA
exchange, something must trigger the exchange and that something has to come
from the application itself.

We also don't want to have to have to transport the cert at all at the
application level - just start signing and digesting from the get go -
granted challenge/nonce etc.. needed later as well.

One more question. Is your certificate profile application-specific? Or the
user uses one cert for any type of application?

GM>=20
I would like to simply define an AVP to transfer a certificate chain
that could be for many scenarios and applications:

a) Use of Diameter as an AAA protocol between a local TLS or EAP-TLS
server and a home network to do the certificate verification. In these
scenarios the certificate would be passed via TLS or EAP and the
application clients certificate would be passed over Diameter to the
application server in the network.

b) Use of Diameter as an AAA protocol to applications that use the
asymetric keys of the certificates to hash/sign/digest the application
signaling directly e.g. on the applications' registration or setup
flows. Symmetric keying material can be created during this exchange for
subsequent transactions. In these scenarios none of the certificates
would pass over the application signaling but the certificate is passed
over Diameter to the application server in the network so it can perform
the crytographic operations using the public key contained in the
certificate.
/GM>

2) It is understandable to not want to touch the app. However, it seems
that the authentication and application authorization (using the cert)
needs to happen before the application starts, so how do you want to
handle the AAA exchange, something must trigger the exchange and that
something has to come from the application itself.
GM>=20
The application must certainly start the process (in the case of a) or
be the process itself (in the case of b).
/GM>

3) One more question. Is your certificate profile application-specific?
Or the user uses one cert for any type of application?

GM> Certficate profiles should actually be deployment specific. I would
prefer to the leave cert profiles to each application and even each
deployment of application as needed. The ID I'm looking for here is
simply an AVP definition to pass a certificate over Diameter. If
diameter is used as the AAA protocol for an application then that
application and even deployment of that application must document the
cert profiles as well as other fields as AVPs that may or may not be
contained solely within the certificate profile. The cert AVP ID should
contain such suggestions for use probably in the security section.

Thanks,

Maybe we should just name the AVP to be "client_application_credentials"
and include a subtype string to identify the type of credential and then
another type for the material itself. This would be generic enough to
handle not only certs but all sorts of other keys as well?

Good points Madjid:

1) If you don't want to do EAP-TLS because of the roundtrips involved in
EAP-TLS and just want to use Diameter to check a cert, then it is a cert
status checking signaling through Diameter. If you understand your
scenario, you want to authenticate an ID that an end user application
client is using for that application by using a private key and send a
cert along to prove it. The application  server cannot check the cert,
so it resorts to the Diameter infrastructure to hit the CA or Cert
status checking server. Isn't this your scenario?

GM>=20
I would like to simply define an AVP to transfer a certificate chain
that could be for many scenarios and applications:

a) Use of Diameter as an AAA protocol between a local TLS or EAP-TLS
server and a home network to do the certificate verification. In these
scenarios the certificate would be passed via TLS or EAP and the
application clients certificate would be passed over Diameter to the
application server in the network.

b) Use of Diameter as an AAA protocol to applications that use the

something has to come from the application itself.

This is incorrect.

You reach Wait-Conn-Ack/Elect from Wait-Conn-Ack.=20
So you have a pending connection request.

Both I-Rcv-Conn-Ack and I-Rcv-Conn-Nack are very possible.

Hi all,

There seem to be a problem with the peer state machine. State
Wait-Conn-Ack/Elect is not reachable to the connection initiator (it is not
a 'next state' of any initiator state), yet initiator events are expected i=
n
this state (I-Rcv-Conn-Ack and I-Rcv-Conn-Nack).
Any idea?

Gil Shafran

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Diameter Base Protocol
	Author(s)	: V. Fajardo, J. Loughney
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dime-rfc3588bis-01.txt
	Pages		: 167
	Date		: 2007-1-31
	
The Diameter base protocol is intended to provide an Authentication,
   Authorization and Accounting (AAA) framework for applications such as
   network access or IP mobility.  Diameter is also intended to work in
   both local Authentication, Authorization & Accounting and roaming
   situations.  This document specifies the message format, transport,
   error reporting, accounting and security services to be used by all
   Diameter applications.  The Diameter base application needs to be
   supported by all Diameter implementations.

Hi Ulf,

With that type of model, how are they going to deal with rogue endpoints,
for example if a SIP UA advertises certain voice codec in SDP but actually
pumps much larger amounts of traffic? This would impact traffic for other
endpoints as well.

I think one would need a per flow reservation mechanism, where the standard
5-tuple and corresponding QoS characteristics are fed to the entity which
actually receives the IP packets. My understanding of RACS Functional
Architecture specified in ETSI ES 282 003 was also in that direction. With
that mode of operation, IP packet processor (RCEF in ETSI terminology) would
have knowledge about all existing bandwith QoS reservations.

    Thanks,
    Tolga

A good point. However, I'm not sure whether this I-D is supposed to try
solve HA assignment any further than the initial assignment during the 
bootstrap.

Ok.

override it.

Hmm.. as this I-D does not have a new application these AVPs in DER/AAR
serve also as an implicit advertisement of MIP support.

Ok. The MSA/MSP is still always able to override whatevet the nAS/ASP
proposes.

I just wonder how this is supposed to work when the MN is roaming in a

Hi Tolga,=20

Yes, endpoints that cannot be trusted certainly need to be controlled in
some way (e.g. through traffic conditioning). Basically the A-RACF has
potentially two sources of information for retreving reservation states
being lost; a) network devices performing per-flow traffic conditioning
and b) the application functions that originally requested the resource
reservations (e.g. SIP proxies). As I see it, which one of a) and b)
that is best suited to deliver the desired information depends on the
actual scenario in question. Reasons for why a) is less suitable than b)
include that;=20
1) the endpoints are trusted and there are therefore no traffic
conditioning implemented in the network,=20
2) traffic conditioning is performed on a per-aggregate basis (e.g. for
performance and/or scalability reasons),=20
3) the failover between A-RACF entities is accompanied by a network
failover resulting in states being lost also in the network devices
performing traffic conditioning (i.e. the A-RACF may even need to
rebuild states in the network), and
4) network devices are not aware of all the properties of the
reservation states in the A-RACF (e.g. admission priorities and/or
virtual resource partitioning affecting the admission control process
but not the traffic conditioning).=20

Best regards,=20

--Resend since I am not sure whether my mail reached the mailing list.

Hi all,

the chairs have received a liaison document from the ITU-T with the 
title: "RFC 3588 - Requirement of Session State Machine for Diameter 
Server Initiated Session"

Thanks to Tina and Sudhir.

Here is the extracted text:

"
ITU-T study group 11 question 5 would like to acknowledge the 
versatility of the Diameter Protocol for its suitability over many 
interfaces in Next Generation Networks (NGN).  The group has decided to 
use the protocol (as one of the alternatives) for the Rs and Rw 
interfaces in the Resource and Admission Control Function (RACF) part of 
the NGN.  The latest drafts of the corresponding protocol specification 
documents for the Rs and Rw interfaces are Q.3301.1 and Q.rcp3.3 
(T05-NGN.GSI-DOC-0127) respectively. 

The Rw interface exists between Policy Decision Physical Entity (PD-PE) 
and the Policy Enforcement Physical Entity (PE-PE) where PD-PE acts as 
the diameter server and the PE-PE acts as the diameter client.  For the 
pull mode of operation, the PE-PE establishes a diameter session and the 
corresponding state machine is covered in section 8.1 of the RFC 3588.  
But for the push mode there is a requirement that the PD-PE, acting as a 
diameter server, initiates the session for which no state machine has 
been provided in the RFC.  The RFC, however, in the last paragraph of 
its section 8.8 indicates indirectly that there is possibility of the 
session initiation by the server.

ITU-T study group 11 question 5 would like to look for comments and 
enhancement of the diameter protocol to clearly specify the session 
state machine for the case of diameter server initiated session.
"

I guess 8.8 is a generic section regarding the use of Session-Id AVP and the
statement  that sessions are usually initiated by clients (which implies
that they may be initiated by servers) does not necessarily hold for all
Diameter applications (that is the part about they may be initiated by
servers).

To me, it doesn't seem to be an oversight that there is no authorization
state machine defined for server initiated sessions. What would be the
semantics for that mode of operation? What would be the request sent from
server to client and for what purpose?

    Thanks,
    Tolga

I'm not familiar with the Rw architecture but would'nt it be possible 
for the PD-PE to initiate a 'client session' towards the PE-PE ...

Hi Tolga,

In the context of QoS/policy control application, there are two models
identified: Push and Pull mode (you can find details from the I-D
(http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-sun-dime-diameter-resource-co
ntrol-requirements-00.txt) and some slides were presented in IETF 67
concerning the use case).=20

The trend of policy control application in the industry is moving
towards an universal architecture to support both pull and push modes.
ITU-T has already defined it in its RACF Release 1. (ETSI TISPAN also
added similar requirement in its ongoing RACS Release 2 work; 3GPP also
intends to support both mobile networks and fixed networks within its
PCC framework, which will require a Push mode in addition to the current
Pull mode).=20

The main issue is that, according to 3GPP R7 Gx spec, in the Pull mode
the policy enforcement point (i.e. PE-FE in ITU-T) serves as a Diameter
client and the policy decision point (i.e. PD-FE in ITU-T) serve as a
Diameter server.=20
Meanwhile, for the Push mode, the same PD-FE also needs to initiate
Diameter session towards the PE-FE. Theoretically, the PD-FE may serve
as a Diameter client in Push mode. However, it seems quite complicated
to maintain two types of relationships between a pair of Diameter
entities dynamically on a per call basis.  On the other hand, if a fixed
client-server relationship is employed between PE-FE and PD-FE, since
the Diameter client may be already embedded in the router for other
purpose (e.g. AAA), then no additional protocol stack and session state
maintenance are required in the router exclusively in order to support
the policy control.=20

Hope this help. (also correspond to Victor's question in a separate
email).

In addition, I'd like to know how difficult to make Diameter server
initiate a new session. Or is it possible to define this kind of state
machine in a separate application if base protocol does not cover it.

Regards,
Dong

[TOLGA]That is exactly my point, if an application sees it necessary, they
can define that type of behavior with the corresponding state machine. What
I try to understand is, is there a need for a change in the base protocol
for that?

Subject: Internet-Draft Boilerplate Reminder
Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2007 11:51:16 -0500
From: IETF Secretariat <ietf-secretariat@ietf.org>
To: IETF Announcement list <ietf-announce@ietf.org>
CC: iesg@ietf.org

This message is to remind you that as of February 1, 2007 the IETF
Secretariat will no longer accept Internet-Drafts with the old
(i.e. pre RFC 4748) boilerplate.  For your convenience, below is
the text of the message that was sent to the IETF Announcement
List by the IETF Chair on October 26, 2006 with Subject: Update to
Internet Draft and RFC Boilerplate.

The IETF Secretariat.
--------------------------------------------------------------
A small update to BCP 78 was recently approved by the IESG as RFC 4748,
to update the boilerplate (i.e., standard legal text) in RFCs and
Internet-Drafts to recognize the IETF Trust as a rights holder,
instead of ISOC.

The actual boilerplate changes are given below this message.

Starting as soon as reasonably possible, all authors of Internet-Drafts
are requested to use the new boilerplate. The RFC Editor will in any
case be inserting it in all RFCs issued from 2006-11-01. (The rights
held by ISOC in older RFCs will be administratively transferred to
the IETF Trust.)

The public ID Nits checker already accepts I-Ds with old or new
boilerplate. The Secretariat has started accepting I-Ds with old or
new boilerplate.

XML2RFC version 1.32 will generate the new boilerplate.
Users of I-D templates are requested to update them appropriately.

http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html and
http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.html are being updated.

Starting December, the public ID Nits checker will issue warnings for old
boilerplate.

Starting February 2007, the Secretariat will refuse the old boilerplate
in Internet-Drafts.

We are sorry for the inconvenience, but this change cannot be avoided.

I guess there some clarification that is needed. My understanding is 
that you don't necessarily need to restrict your PD-PE server to use 
only diameter server sessions. Note that I'm separating the notion of 
diameter 'server sessions' from the PD-PE server functions. The idea 
that these two things are always fused together is what maybe causing 
the confusion. If you separate them there is no reason why your PD-PE 
server functions cannot also initiate a diameter 'client session'. This 
is the idea that Tolga is mentioning, if the PD-PE server needs to 
initiate a request then it can use the appropriate statemachine, i.e. 
client state machine.

best regards,
victor

In the Rw architecture (for the Diameter Option), we are using PD-PE as a 
diameter server already for the Pull Mode case.  This is in line with the 
3GPP Gx architecture (release 7).  But in this case the session is 
initiated by the PE-PE and there is no ambiguity as far as the diamter RFC 
is concerned. 

But in case of push mode, the session establishment is required from the 
PD-PE (which is already acting as diameter server).  This particular 
scenario is not covered in 3GPP Gx architecture and is introduced in ITU-T 
only.  Hence there is this requirements.  In this case the PD-PE is not 
intended to be treated as diamter client because that will make the PD-PE 
functionality very complex and subjective (to the Push/Pull mode).  Since 
Push/Pull modes could be decided dynamically, it would be very difficult 
for the PD-PE to act as both server and client depending on the scenario.

Sudhir Mittal

I'm not familiar with the Rw architecture but would'nt it be possible 
for the PD-PE to initiate a 'client session' towards the PE-PE ...

I'm not sure if its really that complex or maybe I'm just missing 
something. In push mode you use a client sessions and in the pull mode 
you use a server sessions. In either case, you still maintaining only 
one type of sessions and your not really incurring any additional 
processing cost nor adding complex decision making on when to use which 
mode. My main concern here is the attempt to change a fundamental server 
session behavior in 3588 to accommodate a behavior that seems to be 
easily solved.

best regards,
victor

Hi Victor,

The issue is not really with the PD-PE acting as a server or client. In 
fact we just need the information exchange between PD-PE and PE-PE using 
diameter protocol.  The issue is that we need to support both Pull mode 
and Push mode of the session initiation and the subsequent message flows 
need to be inline with the diameter RFC. 

In our stage 3 work, for pull mode, PE-PE sends AAR towards PD-PE for 
session inititation.  Subsequently, the PD-PE may inititate RAR towards 
PE-PE.  Thus the state machine followed at the PD-PE is that of Diameter 
Server.

For push mode, if we initiate a session from PD-PE (as suggested by you), 
then the PD-PE needs to inititate the AAR (or any other new message for 
server initiation) towards PE-PE.  Thus the PD-PE acts as a diameter 
client.  Due to this reason the PD-PE can not send the messages like RAR 
which are server initiated messages.  As a result we would need a Diamter 
Client State machine at PD-PE also.

This leads to a very complex product which supports the diamter client as 
well as diameter server state machines for different dynamically 
determined scenarios.  This kind of complex specification is not 
acceptable to most of the members.  Hence there was this need of diameter 
server initiated session.  If that happens then the PD-PE needs to 
maintain the state machine only for the diamter server.

Sudhir Mittal

I guess there some clarification that is needed. My understanding is 
that you don't necessarily need to restrict your PD-PE server to use 
only diameter server sessions. Note that I'm separating the notion of 
diameter 'server sessions' from the PD-PE server functions. The idea 
that these two things are always fused together is what maybe causing 
the confusion. If you separate them there is no reason why your PD-PE 
server functions cannot also initiate a diameter 'client session'. This 
is the idea that Tolga is mentioning, if the PD-PE server needs to 
initiate a request then it can use the appropriate statemachine, i.e. 
client state machine.

best regards,
victor

Hi Sudhir,

I don't see the big difference between two state machines and a single state
machine with two parts each of them equal to one state machine of the first
model. Maybe I misunderstand the whole issue but what Victor suggested seems
very logical to me.

AFAICS, with two state machines one would have (I just will give a
simplified example from diameter client point of view):

If incoming AAA or RAR run client authorization state machine
If incoming AAR run server authorization state machine

client authorization state machine
{
  do whatever RFC3588 says in client authorization state machine
}

server authorization state machine
{
  do whatever RFC3588 says in server authorization state machine
}


With a single state machine one would have:
for every incoming message call the state machine

state machine
{
 if the message is AAA or RAR do whatever RFC3588 says in client section of
authorization state machine
 if the message is AAR do whatever RFC3588 says in server section of
authorization state machine
}

   Thanks,
   Tolga

I don't think you need two independent parts with a single state machine
if the Diameter server is allowed to initiate a new session in order to
support Push mode. In fact, all existing commands as defined in QoS
application (they are used to support pull mode at the moment) can be
reused for Push mode, the only addition is to define a pair of new
commands to initiate new session. In other words, the current state
machine in server side can be reused to support Push model with some
enhancement (add a pair of new commands and allow the server to initiate
new session in the state machine).=20

I am not sure if the complexity of maintaining two state machines within
the same physical instance of PD-FE for Diameter client and server
respectively equals to a single state mechanism of Diameter server.=20

In addition, since Diameter client may already exist in the network
element for some applications e.g. AAA. it makes sense to reuse existing
client for QoS enforcement in Push model from cost-effective, complexity
and performance perspective.=20

Dong=20

Hi Sudhir,

I don't see the big difference between two state machines and a single
state machine with two parts each of them equal to one state machine of
the first model. Maybe I misunderstand the whole issue but what Victor
suggested seems very logical to me.

AFAICS, with two state machines one would have (I just will give a
simplified example from diameter client point of view):

If incoming AAA or RAR run client authorization state machine If
incoming AAR run server authorization state machine

client authorization state machine
{
  do whatever RFC3588 says in client authorization state machine }

server authorization state machine
{
  do whatever RFC3588 says in server authorization state machine }


With a single state machine one would have:
for every incoming message call the state machine

state machine
{
 if the message is AAA or RAR do whatever RFC3588 says in client section
of authorization state machine  if the message is AAR do whatever
RFC3588 says in server section of authorization state machine }

   Thanks,
   Tolga

Hi Victor,

The issue is not really with the PD-PE acting as a server or client. In
fact we just need the information exchange between PD-PE and PE-PE using
diameter protocol.  The issue is that we need to support both Pull mode
and Push mode of the session initiation and the subsequent message flows
need to be inline with the diameter RFC.

In our stage 3 work, for pull mode, PE-PE sends AAR towards PD-PE for
session inititation.  Subsequently, the PD-PE may inititate RAR towards
PE-PE.  Thus the state machine followed at the PD-PE is that of Diameter
Server.

For push mode, if we initiate a session from PD-PE (as suggested by
you), then the PD-PE needs to inititate the AAR (or any other new
message for server initiation) towards PE-PE.  Thus the PD-PE acts as a
diameter client.
Due to this reason the PD-PE can not send the messages like RAR which
are server initiated messages.  As a result we would need a Diamter
Client State machine at PD-PE also.

This leads to a very complex product which supports the diamter client
as well as diameter server state machines for different dynamically
determined scenarios.  This kind of complex specification is not
acceptable to most of the members.  Hence there was this need of
diameter server initiated session.  If that happens then the PD-PE needs
to maintain the state machine only for the diamter server.

Regards,
Sudhir Mittal

In the last sentence, the network element refers to policy enforcement

 From a modular design point it maybe better to maintain separate state 
machines as opposed to a monolithic do it all server state machine ...

Does this mean the conclusion is to fall in line with the way 3588 
current defines server session fsm's ?

Hi
	I also agree with Sun's suggestion to extend the server state
machine with 2 more messages (one such example is the QIR in the latest QoS
draft).
	If we decide to use Tolga/Victor's suggestion of having a server
state machine at the PE-PE, I think it is not appropriate of a PE-PE to send
RAR or ASR. 
	However, in this case, wemay have to update the client state machine
also (to handle the new request).

Rajith

Hi,

John Loughery changed some of his day-job assignments and as a result
had to give up his position as dime WG co-chair. Thanks, John, for the
dedicated work as co-chair until now. We expect you to continue to make
contributions to dime in the future.=20

David Kessens and myself decided to nominate David Frascone as new
co-chair of dime, replacing John. Congratulations, Dave, and thanks for
accepting this position. This is a responsibility and a challenge as
this WG has a tough agenda to execute. We wish success to you and the
WG.

David and Dan

I'm not sure about the functionality you had in mind but you don't have 
to send a re-auth if you don't need to. As far as ASR is concerned, its 
a sessions maintenance message so I don't think it affects your PE-PE 
functionality too much. Also, it really depends on your application 
policy on whether ASR is sent or you just expect and STR. In such a case 
your not restricted to using it.

>   
If we consider Tolga's suggestion, its easy to achieve symmetric 
conversation between the two entities without changing 3588. One 
advantage is that the type of sessions you use in your push and pull 
modes are mirrored opposites and present in both PE-PE and PD-PE so 
reuse comes easily. Another advantage is your modes are segregated so it 
makes it easy to add/change/delete functionality to one mode without 
affecting the other.

regards,
victor

Does this mean the conclusion is to fall in line with the way 3588
current defines server session fsm's ?
--------
[Dong] what I mean is that the network element (e.g. router, BRAS,
GGSN/PDSN etc) should serve as Diameter client for all applications
since majority of applications such as AAA, QoS application for Pull
model will use the NE as Diameter client. Therefore, it makes sense to
use this Diameter client (in NE) for Push model QoS application as well,
rather than adding a new Diameter Server in the NE only for Push model
QoS application. =20

The current client and server fsm need to be enhanced (to allow the
server to initiate a new session) for this purpose.
------------


regards,
victor

Subject: setting SCTP PPID?
Date: Mon, 05 Feb 2007 17:00:54 +0800
From: Jeff Morriss <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:jeff.morriss@ulticom.com">&lt;jeff.morriss@ulticom.com&gt;</a>

Hi list,

A while back a colleague of mine sent me a PCAP file containing some
Diameter (over SCTP) packets and asked me why Wireshark (formerly
Ethereal) didn't dissect the packets as Diameter.  Of course the answer
was that association wasn't using Diameter's well known port so
Wireshark couldn't figure out that it was Diameter.

SCTP has a field (the Payload Protocol Identifier) wherein ULPs can be
registered to a specific value so everyone will know what the protocol
is regardless of the ports used.  Having it set makes life much easier
for tools like Wireshark.

Have you all ever considered registering a PPID for Diameter (with IANA,
of course)?

Regards,
-Jeff

ps. please Cc: me on any responses as I'm not on the list

pps. you can see the list of currently assigned PPIDs here:

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Diameter Mobile IPv6: NAS <-> HAAA Support
	Author(s)	: J. Korhonen, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dime-mip6-integrated-03.txt
	Pages		: 27
	Date		: 2007-2-13
	
A Mobile IPv6 node requires a Home Agent address, a home address, and
   a security association with its Home Agent before it can start
   utilizing Mobile IPv6.  RFC 3775 requires that some or all of these
   parameters are statically configured.  Ongoing Mobile IPv6
   bootstrapping work aims to make this information dynamically
   available to the Mobile Node.  An important aspect of the Mobile IPv6
   bootstrapping solution is to support interworking with existing
   authentication, authorization and accounting infrastructure.  This
   document describes the MIPv6 bootstrapping using the Diameter Network
   Access Server (NAS) <-> home Authentication, Authorization and
   Accounting server (HAAA) interface.

	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the

Hi Victor
	Whether push/pull mode, the PD-PE always takes policy decisions and
PE-PE is always the enforcement point (as directed by the policy information
received from PD-PE). The State machines should also be inline with this
behaviour. I dont think the client Auth. FSM is suited to an entity who
takes policy decisions and applies at a PE-PE. For eg: PD-PE may have to
send a RAR. The cline FSM does not provide for this, I think.

Regards

Rajith

One should considered that the diameter client and server fsm is used by 
many other applications the way are are designed. Again, I think it 
would be in-appropriate to change that existing expected behavior just 
to accommodate a PD-PE requirement which seems easy to solve with the 
existing fsm design. My two cents on this issue.

victor

In this case, the PD-PE can use STR in place of ASR. If you have been 
using RAR in the pull mode then you probably already have an existing 
message used for authorization. If you do you can re-use that.

hope this helps,

Hi Victor,

When you say that the PD-PE requirement is easy to solve within the 
existing FSM design, are you recommending the following?

{
1. For push mode, PD-PE acts as diameter client PE-PE as diameter server. 
PD-PE sends message to the PE-PE for the session inititation.

2. In this case, since PD-PE is a diamter client, it will not send RAR and 
ASR messages.  The functionality of RAR and ASR messages needs to be 
fulfilled by some new messages.

3. For pull mode PE-PE acts as diameter client and PD-PE as diamter 
server.  PE-PE sends message to the PD-PE for the session inititation.

4. In this case PD-PE will be able to send RAR and ASR messages for the 
corresponding functionalities.

5. Thus PD-PE acts either a diameter client or server depending upon the 
scenario.
}

Please tell if you have any other solution in mind.

Regards,
Sudhir Mittal

One should considered that the diameter client and server fsm is used by 
many other applications the way are are designed. Again, I think it 
would be in-appropriate to change that existing expected behavior just 
to accommodate a PD-PE requirement which seems easy to solve with the 
existing fsm design. My two cents on this issue.

victor

If you look at the stateful client & server FSMs in RFC 3588, the behaviour
of ASR and STR are different. ASR provides for client NOT to consent, in
which case the server will resend the ASR. However, I cannot find a similar
provision for STR.

Hi,

Can any one clarify the following question:

As per section 2.1 " Diameter implementations SHOULD be able to interpret
ICMP protocol port unreachable messages as explicit indications that the
server is not reachable, subject to security policy on trusting such
messages."
As per section 2.6 " Expiration time --- Specifies the time at which
dynamically discovered peer table entries are to be either refreshed, or
expired."

Does the expiration time has got anything todo with the ICMP messages
described in the section 2.1?

-- 
Yours
Naveen.

Some of the participants manage to form a complex topology
to test failover and general routing. A pictorial diagram of
this tolopogy can be found in:
http://www.tschofenig.priv.at/twiki/bin/view/Dime/ToshibaTests
The tests performed on this topology is also summarized there.

It was also observed that the test suite document does not cover many of the
more detailed cases and it was suggested that we split the document into
several test documents such as base protocol test document and a test 
document
for each diameter application.

A summary of issues raised by the participants can be found in:
http://www.tschofenig.priv.at:8080/diameter-interop

Summary
-------
 
The following is a summary of issues raised during the last interop. 
Note that these issues are rolled into the interop report. Also, issues 
are mapped to tracking numbers in:

#32 What is the set of application ids that should be returned in the CEA
 
   A question was raised on what is the set of application ids should  
   a diameter peer return in the CEA. Should it be:
 
   a. An intersection of its own set of app ids and its peer. OR
   b. All of its own supported app ids.
 
   Concerns          : Some edge devices may not be capable of storing  
                       all app ids of peers.
 
   Current consensus : It should return all of its own supported app ids.
                       The intersection can be computed locally by both
                       peers. It maybe an implementation decision but
                       edge devices concerned about storage need not keep
                       the ids. In general the received set of supported
                       apps would only be useful as a future hint about
                       the peers capabilities.
 

 
#33 Why is there a need for Vendor-Specific-Application-Id
 
   A question was raised on why do we need the vendor-specific-app-id
   if the app id space is flat and vendor app ids have an allocated  
   lot in this space.  
                        
   Current consensus  : The intent of this AVP was never fully understood
                        hence we just have to clarify what we currently
                        have and make sure we treat Vendor-Spec-App-Id
                        as an ordinary app id and ingore the vendor-id
                        associated with it.
                         
   Comments from Glenn McGregor: Does this play into the possible ability
                        to route DCC and Ro differently?
                         


#34 Precedence of routes discovered via Redirect indications
 
   A question was raised on what would be the possible precedence order
   when messages matches routing criterias in multiple cached redirect
   routes. The sample scenario is as follows:
 
     a. message with realm='a.com' is redirected to host 'y' with usage 
ALL_REALM
     b. message with user='x' is redirected to host 'z' with usage ALL_USER
     c. both redirect routes (a) and (b) are cached
     d. message with realm='a.com' and user='x' arrvies.
 
   Strawman proposal: The order would be
                         DONT_CACHE
                         ALL_SESSION
                         ALL_USER
                         REALM_AND_APPLICATION
                         ALL_REALM
                         ALL_APPLICATION
                         ALL_HOST
 
   Comments from 3588 Authors (Glenn Zorn):  
 
      This should not happen because the intent is to have only on cached
      redirect route at any given time. If a new redirect route was 
injected,
      it would replace any existing cached route.

   Comments from Glenn McGregor:
   
      Another possible point of interpretation is what is the scope of
      the redirect info? Should it apply to requests before a peer is
      chosen, or does it only active when picking a peer that sent the
      redir info.
 
   Consensus: Discussion continues
 


#35 What is the expected representation and/or encoding of FQDN as used 
in diameter identities
 
   The question raised comes in two parts:
 
   1. Does the FQDN have a syntatic meaning or semantic., i.e. Is it 
suppose
      to a) just look like an ascii version of an FQDN or b) does it 
actually have
      to be DNS resolvable ?
 
   2. If the answer to (1) is (b) then how do we deal with the different 
DNS FQDN
      transliteration/encoding ? Specifically how do we do comparisons ?
       
 
   Comments from 3588 Authors (Jari Arko): For the most part it is
            interesting to diameter from the point of view of comparing
            identities in usage such as lookups. My quick guess is that
            there is no need to do a DNS lookup. I could be wrong. 
Resolution
            maybe only be needed when you a redirect for a particular 
server.
 
   Comments from 3588 Authors (Glen Zorn): With regards to FQDN, you still  
            have a problem since the diameter identifier was expressed 
in FQDN
            and I remember that the internationalization stuff was 
ongoing at  
            the time the diameter spec was being defined. So you did not 
want  
            to guess what they are going to do and what FQDN would have 
become  
            would be fine.
 
            You have to make a new rule. You can have a bunch of different
            names in DNS and one of them has to match what you claim is 
your
            diameter name. You might have to say what transliteration 
method
            is used. It gets real complicated. We need to talk to some 
expert
            in this field to get clarification.
 
   Consensus: Need to talk to experts to do futher clarification.
 
   Notes: See interop minutes for full details of the discussion
 


#36 Relevance of vendor-id when computing common applications in CER/CEA 
exchange.
 
   A suggestion was made to add text stating that vendor-id will not be 
used
   as a descriminator when computing common applications between peers 
during
   capabilities exchange.
 
   Consensus: Textual changes to clarify the current process is needed. No
              protocol or specification changes required.
 
   Notes: 01 version of bis document mentions that vendor-id is not used in
          discriminating routes.
          
   Comments from Glenn McGregor: Should AUTH vs ACCT be used to 
determine intersection?
 


#37 Several clarification on election
 
   1. A question was raised on why the winner of the election would be 
the one
      to disconnect.
   
      Answer from 3588 Author (Jari Arko): It was thought that the 
winner of
      the election should do less work to managed the connection as 
oppose to
      the looser.
 
   2. A suggestion was raised on changing the text regarding the 
lexographic
      comparison (alpabetical) in Sec 5.6.4. The text should simply say 
that
      a lexographical comparison of the identities is done, however that 
identity
      (FQDN) maybe encoded (ascii, unicode, internatinalization etc) and
      however such comparison is performed in that encoding.
 
   Consensus: Textual changes to clarify the current process is needed. No
              protocol or specification changes required.
              
   Comments from Glenn McGregor: Not clear to me which has more or less 
work.
              Once you have a socket handle, it doesn't really matter which
              end initiated the connection. (At least in the languages/OSs
              I've worked in).
              
   Proposal from Glenn McGregor: If old-style FQDN ([A-Za-z0-9-_]+) then a
             case insensitive comparison may be used. Otherwise, byte by 
byte.
 


#38 Need to state clearly what transport layer security version should 
be used
 
   A suggestion was raised in which 3588 should clearly state which 
transport  
   layer security version should be used. There where issues when one 
implementation
   uses SSLv2 as opposed to TLSv1. See minutes for details.
 
   Consensus: Textual changes to clarify the current process is needed. No
              protocol or specification changes required.
              
   Comments from Glenn McGregor: Actually, we need to clearly call out what
              kind of ClientHello envelope is to be used. Everyone so 
far has
              initially attempted to negotiate TLS inside a SSLv2 client 
hello
              message.
 


#39 Need for additional verification of received certificates when using 
TLS
 
   A question was raised if there should be additional validation of 
received
   certificates, maybe against the origin-host.
 
      Strawman from Glenn McGregor: Match the CN of the certificate with 
the
                                    origin-host of the peer
 
      Comments from 3588 Author (Jari Arko): How would you go about this ?
            Would you add something in the certificate
            that says you can use this to authenticate for example
            domain foo.com and anything beyond that is not valid. There
            are definitely questions in this area. Worth investigating.
 
      Consensus: Discussion continues
 
      Notes: See interop minutes for full details of the discussion
      
      Comments from Glenn McGregor: One of the guys here recommended we look
             at RFC 3280 - Subject Alternate name.
 


#40 Clarify the minimum amount of information a relay has to inspect for 
a message
 
   A question was raised on how much processing a relay agent must 
perform for
   every message that it forwards.
 
   Consensus:  You cannot avoid some validation of the message since a 
relay needs
               to inspect not only the message header but relevant 
routing avps
               as well. At the minimum, full validation will be done by 
a relay
               on the header and relevant routing avps and some sanity 
check will
               be peformed for the remaining avps since parsing the 
message requires  
               walking through most/all of the avps headers.
 
   Consensus: Textual changes to clarify the current process is needed. No
              protocol or specification changes required.
 


#41 Description Clarification and Terminology changes
 
   1. A suggestion was made that since routing information is not 
restricted to
      realms and app ids espcially with regards to redirect routes, the 
"Realm
      Routing Table" should be changed to "Routing Table"
 
   2. A suggestion was made that we calrify the description of 
NO_COMMON_APPLICATION.
      It should read as "A node that is not acting as a relay and 
supporting  
      a specific set of application that has a empthy intersection with 
the set
      of application advertised by its peer MUST return 
NO_COMMON_APPLICATION
      in the CEA".
 
   3. A suggestion was made that additional text stating "Vendor-Id or 
Supported-Vendor-Id
      SHOULD NOT be zero" needs to be made.
 
   4. A suggestion was made to clarify description of the routing table to
      account for addition of redirect routes. The suggested text is:
      "Realm and application ids are the minimum supported routing 
criteria,
       additional routing information maybe needed to support redirect 
semantics"
       
   5. Don't send 'supported-vendor-id = 0' CER/CEA. Don't the send the 
same ID
      multiple times.
 
   Consensus: Textual changes to clarify the current process is needed. No
              protocol or specification changes required.
              


#42 Interoperability of DCC and Ro

    During the last interoperability event. There was an issue with 
regards to
    interoperability of DCC and Ro. DCC was routed using the normal app 
id and realm
    descriptor while Ro had embedded the application id (???) into a VSAI.
    
    A question was raised on whether DCC and Ro should be routed/treated as
    different applications.
    
    Comments from Tolga Asveren:
    
    IMHO they should be, but it is hard for us to do anything about it.
    The problem is that 3GPP did not use a new Application-Id. They 
needed to
    use a new one because they defined lots of new AVPs with M-bit set. 
Ro and
    DCCA are used for the same purpose but the semantics are different 
due to
    the new AVPs defined by Ro. IMHO, in such situations people 
shouldn't try to
    use "initiative", they just need to follow the rule which dictates 
that a
    new application has to be defined. We can document that there is a 
problem
    and hint that presence of Ro defined AVPs could be used for routing
    purposes.
    
    Regarding the confusion of the contents of DCCA messages, I guess 
the main
    problem is that command ABNFs are defined genericly, e.g. there is no
    separate ABNF for CCR for session and different event based 
scenarios. So,
    only AVPs, which are mandatory for all scenarios are marked in the 
ABNF as
    mandatory, e.g. User-Name in CCR is mandatory for session based 
messages and
    for event based messages except Service Price Enquiry, hence it is not
    marked as a mandatory AVP. There seem to be two options: Defining 
command
    ABNFs per scenario or relying on textual description (this is pretty 
much
    what is done now).
    


#43 Which application id should be used in NASREQ accounting

    A question was raised on which application id should be used in NASREQ
    accounting message. A further consequence of this are:

    Comments from Glenn McGregor:
        
    Does "Acct-Application-Id = NASREQ" need to be separately announced 
in CER/CEA
    exchange? Do we want to call out separate routing for AUTH vs ACCT 
NASREQ?
    Or is it like STR, RAR,  ASR commands that come for free?



#44 Diameter Extensibility Clarification

    While writing the diameter extensibility guidelines, a question was 
raised
    on the following text. The suggestion stated below requires some 
relaxation
    of the diameter application id allocation rules.
    
    "In order to justify allocation of a new application identifier,
     Diameter applications MUST define one Command Code, or add new
     mandatory AVPs to the ABNF."
    
    Comments from Tolga Asveren:
    
    IMHO, the second part of this sentence causes much confusion. Adding 
an AVP with
    M-bit set but optional in command ABNF MUST cause a new 
application-Id to be
    used, which according to that sentence doesn't. I would prefer the 
following:

    (The following is a change to RFC3588. IMHO, it is a necessary 
change, but I do
    not know whether this document is the right place to do so. Is this 
again bis
    material? If so and if we want to stick to what is said in the 
RFC3588, would it
    be really useful to clarify something we want to change (of course 
only if you
    guys agree with my understanding :-) )

    Proposed text:
    
    In order to justify allocation of a new application identifier, Diameter
    applications MUST define one Command Code, add a new AVP with M-bit 
set to
    one of the existing commands or change the state machine/processing 
rules for
    an existing application.
    


#45 Clarify the possible accounting models


    While editing the application design guidelines doc, it was realized 
that
    the possible accounting usages and models was not clearly described in
    RFC3588. The text below is a proposal to add a new section describing
    these models.
    
    Comments from Tolga for text describing accounting models in the bis:

    Application Accounting Models
   
    Applications MAY use one of the following accounting models:

     o Coupled Accounting

       In this model, the same entity provides both application processing
       logic and accounting functionality. Accounting messages are sent by
       populating the Application-Id field in the message header with the
       application identifier of the corresponding application. No special
       behavior is exptectd during capability exchange procedure or during
       message routing.

     o Split Accounting

       This model assumes presence of a standalone accounting server, which
       MAY possibly be handling accounting for multiple applications. 
Accounting
       messages are sent by using the base accounting application 
identifier 3
       in the Application-Id field in the message header. Accounting servers
       operating in this mode MUST advertise the identifiers for the
       applications for which they can provide accounting service in the
       Acct-Application-Id AVP during capability exchange procedure. For 
split
       accounting scenario, accounting messages MUST include the 
identifier of
       the corresponding  application in the Acct-Application-Id AVP. 
During
       routing of accounting messages Acct-Application-Id AVP value MUST 
be used
       as well in addition to Application-Id to select an appropriate 
accounting
       server. It should be noted that all intermediary nodes, e.g. relay
       agents, MUST be able to route accounting messages by considering 
both the
       Application-Id in the message header and Acct-Application-Id AVP 
in order
       to utilize split accounting.


regards,
victor

I think we all agree that we need some checks on certificates in addition to
what TLS already does. TLS verifies that the certificate is valid but it
doesn't perform any check about for what purpose the certificate is issued.
IMO, the proposal of using  Subject Alternative Name extension makes sense
(dNSName or uniformResourceIdentifier). We can store DiameterURI, Diameter
Identity or domainname.

I believe performing a check for the manual configuration case is relatively
straightforward. The identity of the entity on the other side of the
connection is already known and we check this identity against what is
present in the corresponding field in the certificate.

For dynamic peer discovery case, RFC3588 already provides some guidelines in
5.2 regarding certificate checks (both domainname in the query and
domainname in the replacement must be valid). I am not sure though, how one
would handle the case, where certain service (or routing of messages for
certain service) is delegated to another organization. For example, if I
want to outsource DCCA to OrganizationA but want to handle NASREQ myself,
how could I indicate in the certificate prepared for OrganizationA, that it
is valid for my domain but only for DCCA? Does it make sense to include
application identifier in the certificate to deal with this type of
scenario?

   Thanks,
   Tolga

Couple of questions. </big><br>
<big>In RFC 4006, sec 5.2 which states&nbsp;</big> "</font>If several unit

Suppose the client requests some units in time but the server grants
both in time and money i.e. server adds cc-time and cc-money avps in

I am looking at implementing the Diameter protocol for a server, and I
cannot find a clear statement as to how to create the proper channel to
send responses (answers).  Is the proper method:
=20
    - Clone a response channel (e.g., by an accept() system call)?
    - Open the CER Origin-Host/port 3868
    - Open the CER Host-Realm (port 3868 if none specified)
    - Open the CER Host-IP-Address(es)/port 3868
    - Some other method

The first seems the most logical; however that could result in security
issues if a firewall is crossed (since arbitrary ports must be opened).

Thanks in Advance

James,

There is always a single Diameter connection between two adjacent entities,
and answers are always sent on the connection from which the corresponding
requests has been received.

    Thanks,

Thanks.

I *think* this means my first method (clone a response channel) is
correct, and the use of "accept" in the RFC is a term of art rather than
a common language term.  My concern was that this creates a connection
with one end being an ephimeral port on the client.

This means the statement "The base Diameter protocol is run on port 3868
of both TCP [TCP] and SCTP [SCTP] transport protocols" does not mean
that all messages must use that port, even once a connection is
established.  Given that this has an impact on the configuration of
firewalls over which the connection may pass, this could have been
interpreted differently.

It means that the destination port of the peer doing the connect should
be 3868.  The source port will vary.  Firewalls should work fine with
this mechanism

Hi Hannes,
1) We applied "Diameter Explicit Routing", didn't we? And you said it could 
be put after WG items:P
2) Are you going to discuss on site about the handling regarding to ITU-T 
LS, and prepare an LS reply to ITU-T?

B. R.
Tina

Hi Liyaqatali,

In the scenario you described, I would expect the client to report used
units only in time. It does not have the knowledge to do the translation
between time and money.

I couldn't think of a scenario, why the server would use both cc-time and
cc-time in the answer. Does anybody have any idea about that? What could be
the reason to do so?

    Thanks,
    Tolga

Hi

Couple of questions.
In RFC 4006, sec 5.2 which states  "If several unit types are sent in the
Answer message, the credit-control client MUST handle each unit type
separately." What does it it actual mean to handle it separately?

Suppose the client requests some units in time but the server grants both in
time and money i.e. server adds cc-time and cc-money avps in the granted
service units AVP then how is the client suppose to handle this? if client
can understand only time then? Should the client request and report used
units  in both time and money or is it fine to report in either ?

I would really appreciate if you can help me out here.

Hi all,

If the DCC client is implemented to only handle cc-time then it can't
measure money and report back USU/CC-Money.

The service-context should define which unit types that shall be used
and in the case below there is a configuration error for the specific
service-context.

Hi all,

 I have a quick question concerning the Auth-Grace-Period AVP. I was wondering
if this AVP should always be present with the Authorization-Lifetime
AVP. And if it is not
 present what would happen if Authorization-Lifetime expire ?

 Thanks in advance,

 Regards,

 Julien

There couple of scenarios.<br>

in the first test case the client is not supposed to add
Requested-Service-Unit AVP&nbsp; in the initial CCR. In this case the DCCA
server can send back a CCA and have, say, more than one unit types
included in Granted-Service-Unit AVP. <br>

And according to RFC 4006, if the client is does not know the cost of
the service it can request in terms of service events and if the client
requests in time and if the service context at the server says that
both Money and time are the supported unit types then the server might
send back a CCA with both time and money. <br>

  <pre wrap="">Hi all,

If the DCC client is implemented to only handle cc-time then it can't
measure money and report back USU/CC-Money.

The service-context should define which unit types that shall be used
and in the case below there is a configuration error for the specific
service-context.

BR,

Hi Liyaqatali,

In the scenario you described, I would expect the client to report used
units only in time. It does not have the knowledge to do the translation
between time and money.

I couldn't think of a scenario, why the server would use both cc-time
and cc-time in the answer. Does anybody have any idea about that? What
could be the reason to do so?

    Thanks,
    Tolga

Hi

Couple of questions.
In RFC 4006, sec 5.2 which states  "If several unit types are sent in
the Answer message, the credit-control client MUST handle each unit type
separately." What does it it actual mean to handle it separately?

Suppose the client requests some units in time but the server grants
both in time and money i.e. server adds cc-time and cc-money avps in the
granted service units AVP then how is the client suppose to handle this?
if client can understand only time then? Should the client request and
report used units  in both time and money or is it fine to report in
either ?

I would really appreciate if you can help me out here.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Diameter Quality of Service Application
	Author(s)	: G. Zorn, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dime-diameter-qos-00.txt
	Pages		: 46
	Date		: 2007-2-28
	
   This document describes a Diameter application that performs
   Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting for Quality of Service
   (QoS) reservations.  This protocol is used by elements along the path
   of a given application flow to authenticate a reservation request,
   ensure that the reservation is authorized, and to account for
   resources consumed during the lifetime of the application flow.
   Clients that implement the Diameter QoS application contact an
   authorizing entity/application server that is located somewhere in
   the network, allowing for a wide variety of flexible deployment
   models.


A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
