Chapter 1. Admin Guide

1.1. Overview

This module provides a Diameter implementation for the core AAA API interface.

Any module that wishes to use it has to do the following:

  • include aaa.h

  • make a bind call with a proper Diameter-specific URL, e.g. "diameter:freeDiameter-client.conf"

1.2. Dependencies

1.2.1. OpenSIPS Modules

None.

1.2.2. External Libraries or Applications

All Diameter message building and parsing, as well as the peer state machine and Diameter-related network communication are all powered by the freeDiameter project and C libraries, dynamically linking with the "aaa_diameter" module.

The following libraries must be installed before running OpenSIPS with this module loaded:

  • libfdcore v1.2.1 or higher

  • libfdproto v1.2.1 or higher

1.3. Exported Parameters

1.3.1. fd_log_level (integer)

This parameter measures the quietness of the logging done by the freeDiameter library. Possible values:

  • 0 (ANNOYING)

  • 1 (DEBUG)

  • 3 (NOTICE, default)

  • 5 (ERROR)

  • 6 (FATAL)

NOTE: since freeDiameter logs to standard output, you must also enable the new core parameter, log_stdout, before getting any logs from the library.

Example 1.1. Setting the fd_log_level parameter


modparam("aaa_diameter", "fd_log_level", 0)

1.3.2. realm (string)

The unique realm to be used by all participating Diameter peers.

Default value is "diameter.test".

Example 1.2. Setting the realm parameter


modparam("aaa_diameter", "realm", "opensips.org")

1.3.3. peer_identity (string)

The identity (realm subdomain) of the Diameter server peer, to which the OpenSIPS Diameter client peer will connect.

Default value is "server" (i.e. "server.diameter.test").

Example 1.3. Setting the peer_identity parameter


modparam("aaa_diameter", "peer_identity", "server")

(1) DevScore = author_commits + author_lines_added / (project_lines_added / project_commits) + author_lines_deleted / (project_lines_deleted / project_commits)

(2) including any documentation-related commits, excluding merge commits. Regarding imported patches/code, we do our best to count the work on behalf of the proper owner, as per the "fix_authors" and "mod_renames" arrays in opensips/doc/build-contrib.sh. If you identify any patches/commits which do not get properly attributed to you, please submit a pull request which extends "fix_authors" and/or "mod_renames".

(3) ignoring whitespace edits, renamed files and auto-generated files
