Abstract:
The Diameter base protocol specifies mechanisms whereby a given realm may
advertise Diameter nodes and the supported transport protocol. However, these mechanisms do not reveal the
Diameter applications that each node supports. A peer outside the realm would have to perform
a Diameter capability exchange with every node until it discovers one that
supports the required application. This document updates RFC 3588, "Diameter Base Protocol",
and describes an improvement using an extended format for the Straightforward-Naming
Authority Pointer (S-NAPTR) application service tag that allows for discovery of the
supported applications without doing Diameter capability exchange beforehand.
