Default: 3004 DIAMETER_TOO_BUSY |
| Unavailable Action Vendor ID | If zero, then a Result-Code AVP will be sent when the CPA is not available. If non-zero, then an Experimental-Result AVP will be sent with the Vendor-Id AVP set to this value. | Format: Unsigned integer Default: 0 |
| Unavailable Action Error Message | If a non-null string, this configured string will be appended to the Error-Message AVP that is sent in the Answer response when the CPA is not available. | Format: Text box (string up to 64 characters) Default: CPA Unavailable |

Format: Yes/No Default: No |
| Shutdown Mode | Allows the operator to specify the shutdown method used when the CPA Admin State is changed to Disabled. The CPA can be disabled using either a graceful or forced shutdown method. Graceful allows in-process transactions to continue for a configurable time period before disabling the CPA. Forced is an immediate shutdown. |
