Title: Diameter Group Signaling Author: M. Jones, M. Liebsch, L. Morand Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: April 2023 Mailbox: m...@azu.ca, marco.lieb...@neclab.eu, lionel.mor...@orange.com Pages: 21 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-dime-group-signaling-14.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9390 DOI: 10.17487/RFC9390 In large network deployments, a single Diameter node can support over a million concurrent Diameter sessions. In some use cases, Diameter nodes need to apply the same operation to a large group of Diameter sessions concurrently. The Diameter base protocol commands operate on a single session so these use cases can result in many thousands of command exchanges enforcing the same operation on each session in the group. In order to reduce signaling, it is desirable to enable bulk operations on all (or part of) the sessions managed by a Diameter node using a single or a few command exchanges. This document specifies the Diameter protocol extensions to achieve this signaling optimization. This document is a product of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
