Diameter Agent Overload and the Peer Overload Report
RFC 8581, “Diameter Agent Overload and the Peer Overload Report”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2019 by S. Donovan. It updates RFC 7683. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This specification documents an extension to the Diameter Overload Indication Conveyance (DOIC), a base solution for Diameter overload defined in RFC 7683. The extension defines the Peer Overload report type. The initial use case for the peer report is the handling of occurrences of overload of a Diameter Agent.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
