Diameter Configuration Options

Attribute
Description
Diameter Port
The port number over which the device receives Diameter messages.
Diameter Realm
The domain of responsibility (for example, galactel.com) for the MPE device.
Diameter Identity
The fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or the valid routable domain address (formatted as described in 3GPP TS 23.003) of the MPE device (for example, mpe3.galactel.com ).
Default Resource Id
The bearer used if a GGSN does not send any bearer information in a Credit-Control Request (CCR). Enter an alphanumeric string of up to 100 characters. The default is no resource ID (that is, no bearer).
Correlate PCEF sessions
If true, the primary PCEF Gx session will share information with all secondary sessions that share an IP address within the same IP-CAN session. Up to 10 different Gx sessions can be correlated to one subscriber. By default, PCEF sessions are not correlated and do not share information.
Validate user
If true, sessions for unknown users are rejected.
Diameter PCEF Default Profile
Select the default traffic profile from the list that will be applied during PCEF session establishment using the Gx or Ty protocols, or if no other SCE traffic profile is applied as a result of a policy being triggered. Refer to Policy Wizard Reference for details on creating a traffic profile.
Use Synchronous Sd
If true, the MPE device establishes an Sd session before sending a Gx CCA message to a traffic detection function (TDF).
Identify Duplicate sessions based on APN
If true, the MPE device will detect duplicate sessions. This makes it possible to remove duplicate sessions if their number becomes excessive.
Subscriber ID to detect duplicate sessions
This option is available only if Identify Duplicate sessions based on APN is true. Select the subscriber index type to use from the list:
  • Username
  • NAI
  • E.164 (MSISDN)
  • IMSI
Protocol Timer Profile
The timer profile to use. See Creating a Protocol Timer Profile for details.
Prevent Overlapping Rule Names
If selected, rule names that are dynamically generated on the primary and spare MPE devices in the same Gx session are unique.
Allow Multiple Rx Connections with the same Origin-host Id
When enabled, the MPE device accepts multiple Rx connections with the same Origin-Host Attribute Value Pair (AVP) and source IP address.
Timers
Rx-to-PCMM gate timers. Enter values in seconds for T1 (authorized, default 1 second), T2 (reserved, default 300 seconds), and T3 (committed, default 300 seconds).
