Adding Discovery Attributes

Use this task to create new Discovery Attributes.

The fields are described in Peer Discovery Realms elements.

1. Click Diameter > Configuration > Peer Discovery > Discovery Attributes.
2. Click Insert.
3. Specify a unique name in the Realm Name field.
4. Select or enter the element values.
5. Click:
   • OK to save the new Discovery Attributes and return to the Discovery Attributes page.

     Note:

     This assumes all validation checks pass.
   • Apply to save the new Discovery Attributes and remain on this page.

     Note:

     This assumes all validation checks pass.
   • Cancel to return to the Discovery Attributes page without saving any changes.
   If OK or Apply is clicked and any of the following conditions exist, then an error message appears:

   • The Connection Mode for a Realm being discovered is Initiator & Responder, and the Local Node assigned to the Discovery Attributes instance does not have a Listen Port assigned to at least one protocol.

     Note:

     In order for any dynamically-created Connection to act in the role of Responder, a Listen Port must be assigned for one or more protocols. If the Realm's Connection Mode is Initiator, then Listen Ports do not have to be supplied.
   • The Local Protocol Preference Override value is Yes, and the preference value for all protocols associated with any configured Application Id is zero or is missing.
   • Any validation checks fail.
   • Any required field is empty (no value was entered).
   • The value in any field is not valid or is out of range.
   • Any required information is not unique; it already exists in the system.
   • The maximum number of any of the discovery attributes already exists in the system.
