The Diameter > AVP Dictionary > Custom Dictionary page displays all proprietary AVPs defined by the operator in the system. Base Dictionary AVPs are not displayed in the Custom Dictionary list.
AVP names that are defined in the dictionary can be used in creating Rule Templates and in provisioning Rule Sets.
The Attribute Name, AVP Code, AVP Flag settings, Vendor ID, Data Type, and Protocol must be specified in the AVP definition.
If the Data Type is Enumerated, the name of the Enumerated Type is also included.
If the Data Type is Grouped, the list of Grouped AVPs appears in the dictionary.
The values for AVP definitions are described in Custom Dictionary elements.
If the Attribute Name of an AVP appears in both the Base and Custom Dictionaries, the Custom Dictionary definition is used when the AVP is selected in Rule Template Actions and Conditions.
Filter the list to display only the desired entries. All column headings are supported in the filters except the Flags.
The Diameter > AVP Dictionary > Custom Dictionary [Insert] page opens. You can add a new AVP and its values.
If the maximum number of AVPs (1024) already exist in the system, the Diameter > AVP Dictionary > Custom Dictionary [Insert] page will not open, and an error message is displayed.
The Diameter > AVP Dictionary > Custom Dictionary [Edit] page appears. The detailed definition for the selected AVP is displayed. You can change the AVP definition except for the AVP Code, Vendor ID, and Attribute Name.
Select an AVP definition in the list, and click the Delete button to remove the selected AVP definition from the dictionary.
