Configuring Diameter Peer

The peer nodes are configured in the configmap-pcf-diam-gateway-service-diameter.yaml file present in the location chart pcf/templates.

Note:

The IWF does not listen for incoming connections, as the connection with diameter peer is always initiated by IWF.

Following is a sample yaml file.

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: pcf-diam-gateway-config-peers
data:
  diameter-config-peers: |
    version: '0.3'
    kind: 'diameter-config'
    metadata:
      label: 'diameter-config-peers'
    setting:
      reconnectDelay: 3
      responseTimeout: 5
      connectionTimeOut: 3
      watchdogInterval: 6
      transport: 'TCP'
    # type: [af, dra]
    nodes:
      - name: 'P-CSCF'
        type: 'pcrf'
        responseOnly: true
        host: '10.75.215.205'
        port: 3880
        realm: 'ociwf.oracle.com'
        identity: 'pcrfsim.ociwf.oracle.com'

Table 4-1 provides information about the yaml file parameters.
