METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR PERFORMING DIAMETER ANSWER MESSAGE-BASED NETWORK MANAGEMENT AT A DIAMETER SIGNALING ROUTER (DSR)

摘要

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for performing Diameter answer message-based network management at a Diameter signaling router (DSR) are disclosed. According to one method, a Diameter answer message that includes error indicator information is received from a first Diameter node at a DSR. The error indicator information included in the Diameter answer message is examined, at the DSR, and information based on the error indicator information is used to update status information for routes maintained by the DSR to the first Diameter node.
