Maintenance and status data is maintained and displayed on the following Diameter > Maintenance GUI pages for Diameter Configuration components, DSR Applications including Policy and Charging, and DA-MPs including those that run the Policy and Charging application:
- Route Lists Maintenance - The Diameter > Maintenance > Route Lists page displays information about the Route Groups assigned to Route Lists. Route List maintenance and status data is maintained and merged to the OAMs. The data is derived from the current Operational Status of Route Groups assigned to a given Route List. The Operational Status of each Route List determines whether the Route List can be used for egress routing of Request messages.
- Route Groups Maintenance - The Diameter > Maintenance > Route Groups page displays the configured and available capacity for Route Groups and displays information about Peer Nodes or Connections assigned to a Route Group.
This information can be used to determine if changes need to be made to the Peer Node or Connection assignments in a Route Group in order to better facilitate Diameter message routing. Additionally, this information is useful for troubleshooting alarms.
Note: Policy and Charging will create and add one metadata record to the TTR for each event that occurs while any Diameter message in the transaction is being processed. This function is achieved through Policy and Charging support of IDIH.
- Peer Nodes Maintenance - The Diameter > Maintenance > Peer Nodes page provides the Operational Status of Peer Node connections, including a Reason for the status.
- Connections Maintenance - The Diameter > Maintenance > Connections page displays information about existing connections, including the Operational Status of each connection.
The Diameter > Maintenance > Connections > SCTP Statistics page displays statistics about paths within an SCTP connection. Each line on the page represents a path within an SCTP connection.
- Applications Maintenance - The Diameter > Maintenance > Applications page displays status, state, and congestion information about activated DSR Applications. The data is refreshed every 10 seconds.
On the Diameter > Maintenance > Applications page, you can change the Admin State of the selected DSR Application to Enabled or Disabled.
- DA-MPs Maintenance - The Diameter > Maintenance > DA-MPs page provides state and congestion information about Diameter Agent Message Processors.
On the
Diameter > Maintenance > DA-MPs page,
- The Peer DA-MP Status tab displays Peer status information for the DA-MPs.
- The DA-MP Connectivity tab displays information about connections on the DA-MPs.
- The tab for each individual DA-MP displays DA-MP and connection status from the point-of-view of that DA-MP.
The Diameter > Reports > MP Statistics (SCTP) Reports GUI page displays the Message Processor (MP) SCTP statistics per MP, for all MPs or for a selected set of MPs. Each row shows the statistics for one MP.
Diameter Maintenance is described in more detail in the Diameter User Guide and in the Diameter Help.
