1. IETF70 DIME WG1 tena@huawei.com ; vfajardo@toshiba.com jouni.korhonen@teliasonera.com ; tasveren@sonusnet.com Diameter Routing Extensions (draft-tsou-dime-base-routing-ext -03.txt)

2. IETF70 DIME WG2 Overview Refresher –Ability for intermediaries to stay in the Diameter signaling path during a session (e.g. an outgoing gateway for a domain enforcing policy) Updates since IETF 68/69 –Proposes new “workarounds” to provide explicit routing without using new routing AVPs Introduce intermediate proxy nodes that are session stateful Session stateful nodes can select the next hop node to send session messages to –Retain old scheme Use new routing AVPs that keep track of nodes to visit –Added more use case scenarios; i.e. 3GPP

3. IETF70 DIME WG3 Comparisons of current explicit routing schemes Stateful node acting as diameter back-to-back server-relay –Advantage Can be used without adding/changing AVPs in messages; easily backward compatible Back-to-back server retains the burden of maintaining session-based routing scheme End-point receivers (and maybe transmitters) of the messages need not know about explicit routing Requires that the back-to-back server acts as separate Diameter server for all service/domain pairs If security procedures on application level are employed, the back-to-back server should proxy them –Disadvantage An agent that is not stateful and residing one-hop or more prior to the stateful proxy node can re-route session messages away from the stateful proxy Requires that the back-to-back performs endpoint procedures, e.g. duplicate detection Use of routing AVPs –Advantage Nodes that need to be visited are explicitly tracked from end-to-end –Disadvantage Requires new routing AVPs to be piggybacked on session messages Requires support from all participants (sender, intermediate nodes and receiver)

4. IETF70 DIME WG4 Use case #1: TISPAN NASS UAAF E5 interface is a diameter cloud which typically has relays For each sessions, a3 can use any available UAAF Problem: Server messages (Home to visited) for a session needs to pass through the same UAAF in the visited network

5. IETF70 DIME WG5 Use case #2: 3G I-WLAN 3GPP AAA Proxy 3GPP AAA Proxy 3GPP AAA Proxy Wd interface is a diameter cloud which typically has relays For each sessions, Wd can use any available 3GPP AAA Proxy Problem: 3GPP AAA Server messages (Home to visited) for a session needs to pass through the same 3GPP AAA proxy in the visited network Problem: Current 3GPP scheme uses decorated NAI in the User-Name to define a type of source routing

6. IETF70 DIME WG6 Home Agent AAA-MSP Server Mobility Service Provider AAA-MSA Server Mobility Service Authorizer IKEv2-EAP Use Case #3: Diameter MIPV6 Application Multiple AAA-MSP can exist in the service provider network Diameter clouds can contain stateless relays Problem: Server messages (Authorizer to provider) for a session needs to pass through the same MSP in the provider network AAA-MSP Server AAA-MSP Server AAA Cloud AAA Cloud
