Using Application IDs to Identify Diameter Applications

An Application ID, along with an Application Name, is used to uniquely identify a Diameter application.

You can perform these tasks on an Active System OAM (SOAM).

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) lists standard and vendor-specific Application IDs on the iana.org website. On the website:

• Select Protocol Assignments
• Scroll to locate the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) Parameters heading
• Select Application IDs

The Application ID fields are described in Diameter Application IDs Elements.

On the Diameter > Configuration > Application IDs page, you can:

• Filter the list of Application IDs to display only the desired Application IDs.

• Click Insert.

  On the Diameter > Configuration > Application IDs [Insert] page, you can add a new Diameter Configuration Application ID and its values. See Adding an Application ID.

  If the maximum number of Application IDs (1000) already exists in the system, then the Diameter > Configuration > Application IDs [Insert] page does not display and an error message appears.

• Select an Application ID and click Edit.

  On the Diameter > Configuration > Application IDs [Edit] page, you can edit the selected Application ID. See Editing an Application ID.

• Select an Application ID and click Delete to delete the selected Application ID. See Deleting an Application ID.
