Throughout the document, when it says:
[Missing sections when RFC 4005 was obsoleted by RFC 7155]
It should say:
4.7 AVPs Used Only for Compatibility
The AVPs defined in this section SHOULD only be used for backwards
compatibility when a Diameter/RADIUS translation function is invoked
and are not typically originated by Diameter systems during normal
operations.

| AVP Flag |
| Rules |

|MUST| MUST|
Attribute Name Section Defined | | NOT|

Origin-AAA-Protocol 4.7.1 | M | V |

4.7.1. Origin-AAA-Protocol
The Origin-AAA-Protocol AVP (AVP Code 408) is of the type Enumerated
and should be inserted in a Diameter message translated by a gateway
system from another AAA protocol, such as RADIUS. It identifies the
source protocol of the message to the Diameter system receiving the
message.
The supported values are:
1 RADIUS
Notes:
The description of Origin-AAA-Protocol (AVP Code 408) is missing from RFC 7155. The AVP is documented in RFC 4005 section 9.3.6.
The proposed corrected text contains RFC 4005 section 9.3 as RFC 7155 section 4.7, and RFC 4005 section 9.3.6 as RFC 7155 section 4.7.1. All other AVPs in RFC 4005 section 9.3.x are not listed because they are documented in their relevant standards already.
RFC 7155 is listed as the Reference for Origin-AAA-Protocol in multiple locations in https://www.iana.org/assignments/aaa-parameters/aaa-parameters.xhtml
It appears that there may be an accidental omission of Origin-AAA-Protocol when RFC 7155 obsoleted RFC 4005.
The Origin-AAA-Protocol AVP is referenced in other sections in RFC 7155:
- 3.1. AA-Request (AAR) Command
- 3.2. AA-Answer (AAA) Command
- 3.3. Re-Auth-Request (RAR) Command
- 3.4. Re-Auth-Answer (RAA) Command
- 3.5. Session-Termination-Request (STR) Command
- 3.6. Session-Termination-Answer (STA) Command
- 3.7. Abort-Session-Request (ASR) Command
- 3.8. Abort-Session-Answer (ASA) Command
- 3.9. Accounting-Request (ACR) Command
- 3.10. Accounting-Answer (ACA) Command
- 5.1. AA-Request / AA-Answer AVP Table
- 5.2.1. Framed Access Accounting AVP Table
- 5.2.2. Non-Framed Access Accounting AVP Table

Throughout the document, when it says:
Redirected-Host*
It should say:
Redirect-Host*
Notes:
I did not find AVP Redirected-Host defined anywhere, however there is Redirect-Host in RFC 6733 (same with Redirected-Host-Usage)

Section 4.4 says:
QoS-Filter-Rule 4.4.9 | | |
It should say:
QoS-Filter-Rule 4.4.9 | M | V |
Notes:
The row "QoS-Filter-Rule" does not define AVP Flag Rules for "M" or "V":
- The V Flag MUST NOT be used for this AVP.
- There may be some debate whether the M Flag can be retrospectively added to the MUST column, versus leaving it out (implied "MAY" ?).
The changes are consistent with all other AVPs in this RFC.
