Diameter Routing: Creating an Endpoint

Endpoints contain all the remote and local peers and display their basic information such as Endpoint Type, Connection Type, Address and Port.

Note: Multiple IP address can be configured for an Endpoint.

Use this procedure if you need to create multiple IP addresses on a remote or local peer.

Note: CMP must be configured for Wireless-C to use Diameter Routing.

Complete these steps to create an Endpoints:

From the MRA section of the navigation pane, select Diameter Routing.
From the Diameter Routing tree, select Endpoints.
Click Create Endpoint to open the Configuration screen.
Enter the following:
- Name—Enter the name of the endpoint (which must be unique in the CMP database).
- Protocol—Enter either SCTP or TCP depending on the type of node being used.
- Type—Select either Local or Remote depending on type of connection being used.
  Note: If Local is selected, you must choose an Associated MRA.
  
  Note: Both of the primary IP and the secondary IPs must be the sigA or sigB of the MRA defined in topology when the connection type is Local .
- Primary Site IP—Enter the IP address, in IPv4 or IPv6 format, of the primary site.
  Note: An error prompt will notify you if the IP address of the local peer is invalid.
- Secondary Site IP—For georedundant configurations, enter the IP address, in IPv4 or IPv6 format, of the server at the secondary site.
  Note: An error message will notify you if the IP address of the local peer is invalid. The secondary IP address is hidden if the connection type is TCP.
  
  Note: The secondary IP will be hidden if the connection Type is TCP.
- Port—Enter the port number (integer, for example 6000).
- Description—(Optional) Enter a description of the Endpoint.
Click Save.

The Endpoint is created.
