The Base Dictionary allows you to view or clone the basic AVPs that are familiar to the system (defined in the Base Diameter Standard and in Diameter Applications, such as Diameter Credit Control Application and S6a interface). The cloning function allows you to update the base AVP by specifying it once more in the Custom Dictionary.
The AVP Attribute Name, AVP Code, AVP Flag settings, Vendor ID, Data Type, and Protocol are included in the AVP definition.
If the Data Type is Enumerated, the name of the Enumerated Type is also included.
Proprietary and additional standard AVP definitions can be added in the Custom Dictionary.
