Diameter Full Decoding Panel

When the user selects a payload event in the Events Panel or a ballon from the Event Diagram, the corresponding message is displayed fully decoded in the Full Decoding Panel. This view explains every byte of the selected diameter message.

The Diameter Full Decoding Panel is further divided into two panels. The first panel shows the payload bytes of the messages. The second panel displays the Diameter Message Header and all AVPs decoded into a readable format. It shows every field of the header and AVP as defined by the Diameter RFC. Each field of the message header and AVP is displayed on separate lines.

The detailed decoding list has the following columns:

• Offset (An offset address of the field from the beginning of the diameter payload. Version field of Diameter Message Header has offset 0)
• AVP / Field Name
• Value and description (Value and possible description)
