Folks,

There is a small change in the agenda:
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/85/agenda/agenda-85-dime

I encourage people to read both overload drafts. They share quite a bit of
similarities in certain areas (authors did share information prior the
submission). There are also different views on how to approach the
information dissemination.

I have a few comments below.

>3. Diameter Node Behavior
...
>   OPEN ISSUE: SIP Overload Control includes a sequence parameter to

>   state that is no longer accurate.  Is message reordering a concern in
>   Diameter?  That is, do we need to include sequence numbers in the

When using multiple streams in SCTP newer packets can overtake older ones if sent on different streams. But is is likely to be only at few seconds out-of-order, so I don't think it matters for load information.


>3.2. Diameter Client and Diameter Server Behavior
...
>   In order to allow recipients of overload information to perform
>   certain performance optimizations, we also define a new command flag,
>   called 'O'verload.  This bit, when set, indicates that the message
>   contains at least one Load-Info AVP with a non-zero Overload-Metric
>   -- in other words, the sending node is overloaded for at least one
>   context.  See Section 7.4 for the definition of the 'O'verload bit.

I don't think the O bit will be useful at all. In some diameter stacks it would be easiest to just insert Load-Info AVPs in all answers, thereby making the potential O-bit optimization useless.


>3.4. Proactive Load and Overload Communication
...
>   Similarly, in order to provide
>   peers the proper data for load distribution, nodes SHOULD send DWR
>   messages to a peer if the load information most recently sent to that
>   peer has changed by more than 20% and is more than 5 seconds old.

Doesn't the 5 seconds conflicts with RFC3539 section 3.4.1 which calls of minimum DW interval to be 6 seconds ?

Also, how was the values 20% and 5 seconds chosen?


>5.4. Overload-Info-Scope AVP
...

Is there any overwhelming reason for using this format? It would be more in the spirit of diameter to used a grouped AVP for this


Finally, I don't like the use of the words "drop" and "loss". I have seen at least one implementation that thinks diameter nodes can silently discard requests, and has therefore implemented timer-based retransmits instead of link-failure-based retransmits. Perhaps a note in the introduction that the word drop is to mean "respond with an error".

By "drop" don't you mean "not send" ?

The special treatment of the value 0.0 sounds a bit ugly. Are there any diamter stacks that would have difficulties in simply not including the AVP?

Wouldn't it be better if the DOCA client send a proposed rate, and the server responded with an accepted rate ?

Good point. THat could easily be defined as a default behavior
when the AVP is absent.

Could be. I'll think about it.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies.
 This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Worki=
ng Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Realm-Based Redirection In Diameter
	Author(s)       : Tina Tsou
                          Ruibing Hao
                          Tom Taylor
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dime-realm-based-redirect-07.txt
	Pages           : 8
	Date            : 2012-11-05

Abstract:
   The Diameter protocol allows a Diameter redirect agent to specify one
   or more individual hosts to which a Diameter message may be
   redirected by an upstream Diameter node.  However, in some
   circumstances an operator may wish to redirect messages to an
   alternate domain without specifying individual hosts.  This document
   specifies a mechanism by which this can be achieved.  New
   applications may incorporate this capability by reference to the
   present document.

   This memo updates Sections 6.13 and 6.14 of RFC6733 with respect to
   the usage of the Redirect-Host-Usage and Redirect-Max-Cache-Time
   AVPs.

Based on discussion in the dime meeting today, I think I understand the =
disconnect now.  Here's another stab at clear language for this  (I'll =
get there eventually :-)

	the network operators may not
         want the interconnect network to use overload or loading =
information.
         They may only want the information to pass through the =
interconnect
         network without further processing or action by the =
interconnect
         network even if the elements in the interconnect network do =
support
         diameter overload control.


How does that work?

Thanks,

Eric

Folks,

The draft meeting minutes are available:
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/85/minutes/minutes-85-dime

Thanks to Jean for excellent job on writing the bulk of those down!
I did only minor editing on this.

There is one comment that I could not memorize what was the ending of it.
The place is during the overload control discussion part and on Ben's
comment (marked with [??]). That should get fixed there.

- Jouni

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies.
 This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Worki=
ng Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Diameter Overload Control Requirements
	Author(s)       : Eric McMurry
                          Ben Campbell
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dime-overload-reqs-01.txt
	Pages           : 26
	Date            : 2012-11-12

Abstract:
   When a Diameter server or agent becomes overloaded, it needs to be
   able to gracefully reduce its load, typically by informing clients to
   reduce sending traffic for some period of time.  Otherwise, it must
   continue to expend resources parsing and responding to Diameter
   messages, possibly resulting in congestion collapse.  The existing
   mechanisms provided by Diameter are not sufficient for this purpose.
   This document describes the limitations of the existing mechanisms,
   and provides requirements for new overload management mechanisms.

This addresses list comments to date.  Still outstanding are comments =
from Jouni and Tom, which will be incorporated into an 02 along with any =
other feedback received.  This is pretty close to done, so please have a =
look and provide comments if you have not done so already.

Thanks,

Eric

Hi,

I have briefly reviewed draft-ietf-dime-overload-req-00 again. Sorry for
the extended delay! Some comments beflow:

Section 2.3.  Interconnect Scenario

 o Explain IPX and provide appropriate references so that the reader
   can get the context.

Section 4. Existing Mechanisms

 o I would also add DPR with Disconnect-Cause=DO_NOT_WANT_TO_TALK_TO_YOU
   discussion here. IMHO it is also valid mechanism, though a bit cruel.

Section 5.2.  Problems with Explicit Mechanisms

 o See the DPR above.

 o Then a flow of mind/thinking.. since protocol level errors like
   DIAMETER_UNABLE_TO_DELIVER and DIAMETER_TOO_BUSY are delivered using
   a specific CCF, why cannot we just put overload whatever information
   there? That would be a better than nothing approach to tackle a class
   of overload cases. Basically one could add AVPs that describe specifically
   why DIAMETER_UNABLE_TO_DELIVER and DIAMETER_TOO_BUSY took place and 
   what need to be done to get over that situation. And these errors can
   be sent by any intermediate Diameter node, not just the end points. I
   think we need to cover these errors a bit better than just saying they
   are no usable. (the additional data falls into *[AVP] wildcard in the
   error response and is understood by the receiver or then not..)

6.1.  Overload in Mobile Data Networks

 o I'd like to see quite a few references here.. 23.002, 29.272, 29.002,
   IR.92, ..

 o PCC and IMS seem to have been skipped here (except indirectly covered by
  VoLTE).

Section 7. Solution Requirements

 o Req 2: I would also add here that the solution MUST NOT have assumptions
   on how some applications are _implemented_ today compared how they are
   specified.

 o Req13: related to this, I would also have some text here or on some other
   requirement regarding the additional size overhead introduced by the
   overload mechanism. That must also be taken into account.

 o Req18: How do you prevent other from benefiting? Say, the others do the
   work and the ones that do not still get the benefit network not being
   overloaded in general.. and they do not need to move a limb.

 o Req21: I see the intention but how do you qualify some node meets the
   requirement? To me this requirement equals to implicit mechanisms i.e.
   the other end does not really respond so it probably i having issues.
   Typically the other ends start resending, which just worsens the
   situation, right?

 o Req28: The lack of e2e security makes this requirement hard to meet. 
   Also, would this mean we need a way to prove the authenticity of the
   provided overload information? What would be the cost of that?

Section 9. Security Considerations

 o Quite a few of these vulnerabilities boil down to the fact that we
   cannot prove the ownership & authenticity of the provided overload
   control information. I would state that there..

Is that level of detail necessary to get the use case across?  Perhaps =

agree, I'll add that to the discussion.  I think BUSY may be a better =

either way.

I agree that work needs to be done on the error responses.  I don't =
think that would be sufficient to cover overload control though and I =
have been thinking of this as a different problem.  The lack of =
information on the error responses that can be used for overload control =
is only one of the issues with them.  A separate effort to fix those =
would be worthwhile.

Well, those will certainly send anyone not familiar with 3GPP stuff down =
a rat hole...

thanks for pointing that section out.  I had forgotten that there was =
still a note in there about needing citations.

I can add a bit more here.  You are wanting to beef up the info showing =
how much use of Diameter (and subsequently, the impact of overload) =
there is in mobile networks?=20

sounds reasonable.  Are you thinking about relays here? I think it is =
still relevant question wether a pure relay is an element that will ever =
be used.

doesn't this get captured by the not introducing substantial additional =
work bit?  it seems to be a derivative.  If the size overhead is large, =
that would introduce additional work, right?

this one is tricky.  It comes straight from the SIP overload control =
requirements (RFC 5390) so perhaps someone from that group can better =
answer this (Janet, Eric?).  I believe that the goal is not to prevent =
benefit to elements that do not support the mechanism.  Rather, it is to =
require the mechanism attempt to treat those elements fairly with =
respect to the elements that do support the mechanism.

One hopes that having some elements in a network that do support an =
overload control mechanism will benefit all of the network.

An overload control mechanism will have to consider and handle this case =
and the requirement is more for the mechanism than a node that =
implements it.  It would be possible to design a mechanism that did just =
what you are suggesting and started resending, which would indeed cause =
a worsening of the situation.  I think this requirement is there to =
ensure that a compliant mechanism has considered this and that it =
specifies rational behavior when this happens.

perhaps someone should work on e2e security ;-)

I agree this would be difficult for e2e overload signaling.  It's =
important though because the potential harm from attacks goes up =
substantially with an overload control mechanism in place.  A single =
malicious message could deny large amounts of service.

okay, I will add some text to that effect in the summary.

I would only say something along the lines:

   IPX (IP eXchange) [IR.34] is an Inter-Operator IP Backbone that =
provides
   roaming interconnection network between mobile operators and service
   providers. The IPX is also used to transport Diameter signaling =
between
   operators [IR.88].

Something towards that direction. I could/would add more weight to our
requirements doc.

Actually I was not thinking about relays. Just in general. It is so
easy to draw conclusions with the few implementations one is familiar
with.

Could be. I am fine whatever you do here.. or choose not to do.

Right. Maybe someone who contributed to SIP overload can shift their
ideas & reasoning on this requirement into this document?

Maybe we just need to point out the lack of e2e security and its =
implications
regarding this requirement? That's like one sentence or so.
