Abstract:
When a Diameter server or agent becomes overloaded, it needs to be
able to gracefully reduce its load, typically by informing clients to
reduce or stop sending traffic for some period of time. Otherwise,
it must continue to expend resources parsing and responding to
Diameter messages.
This document proposes a concrete, application-independent mechanism
to address the challenge of communicating load and overload state
among Diameter peers, and specifies an algorithm for load abatement
to address such overload conditions as they occur. The load
abatement algorithm is extensible, allowing for future documents to
define additional load abatement approaches.
