Diameter, Configure Peer Node and Connections

Contents


1   Description

This instruction describes how to configure one or more Diameter connections from the own node to a peer node.

2   Procedure

2.1   Configure Peer Node and Connections

Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Navigate to the DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer Managed Object (MO), for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,XyzFunction=xyz,DIA-CFG-Application=DIA,DIA-CFG-StackContainer=abc,DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer=abc

  2. Enter Config mode:

    (DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer=abc)>configure

  3. Create the DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode MO, for example:

    (config-DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer=abc)>DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc

    Note:  
    A first connection conn1 is created automatically with the DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode MO.

  4. Set attributes transportLayerType and ipAddressesList of the DIA-CFG-NeigbourNode MO, for example.

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc)>transportLayerType=1

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc>ipAddressesList="0:10.1.137.2"

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc>ipAddressesList="1:2dea::66:2"

  5. Set any other relevant optional attributes for the DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode MO.
  6. Enable the DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode MO:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc)>enabled=true

  7. Commit the settings:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc)>commit -s

  8. Verify the peer node configuration result:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc)>show

    The following is an example output:

    DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc
       connIds
          "0:abc#23node12.ericsson.com#23conn1"
       diaVendorId="0"
       firmwareRevision="0"
       isDynamic=false
       ipAddressesList
          "0:10.1.137.2"
          "1:2dea::66:2"
       productName=""
       realm=""
       transportLayerType="1"
       DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn1
  9. Navigate to the DIA-CFG-Conn MO for the connection conn1, for example:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc)>DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn1

  10. Set any other relevant optional attributes for the connection for the DIA-CFG-Conn MO.
  11. Enable the DIA-CFG-Conn MO, for the connection:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn1)>enabled=true

  12. Commit the settings:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn1)>commit -s

  13. Verify the connection configuration result:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn1)>show

    The following is an example output:

    DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn1
       blockReason="Own Node or Peer Node disabled"
       enabled=true
       linkStatus="Initial"
  14. Are more connections needed?

    Yes: Continue with the next step.

    No: Proceed with Step 22.

  15. Navigate to the DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode MO:

    >up

  16. Create the DIA-CFG-Conn MO for one more connection, for example:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=node12.ericsson.com\23abc)>DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn2

  17. Set any other relevant optional attributes for the connection for the DIA-CFG-Conn MO.
  18. Enable the DIA-CFG-Conn MO for the connection:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn2)>enabled=true

  19. Commit the settings:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn2)>commit -s

  20. Verify the connection configuration result:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn2)>show

    The following is an example output:

    DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn2
       blockReason="Own Node or Peer Node disabled"
       enabled=true
       linkStatus="Initial"
  21. Proceed with Step 14.
  22. Return to Exec mode:

    (config-DIA-CFG-Conn=abc\23node12.ericsson.com\23conn2)>end
