RFC 7683, "Diameter Overload Indication Conveyance", October 2015

Note: This RFC has been updated by RFC 8581

Source of RFC: dime (ops)

Section 4.3 says:

The overloaded realm is identified by the Destination-Realm AVP 
of the message containing the OLR.

It should say:

The overloaded realm is identified by the Origin-Realm AVP
of the message containing the OLR.

Notes:

When the overload report is of type "REALM_REPORT", the overloaded realm is identified by the Origin-Realm AVP of the Diameter command i.e. the realm of the originator of the Diameter command with the overload report.

Section 7.2 says:

7.2.  OC-Feature-Vector AVP

   The OC-Feature-Vector AVP (AVP Code 622) is of type Unsigned64 and
   contains a 64-bit flags field of announced capabilities of a DOIC
   node.  The value of zero (0) is reserved.

   The OC-Feature-Vector sub-AVP is used to announce the DOIC features
   supported by the DOIC node, in the form of a flag-bits field in which
   each bit announces one feature or capability supported by the node.
   The absence of the OC-Feature-Vector AVP in request messages
   indicates that only the default traffic abatement algorithm described
   in this specification is supported.  The absence of the OC-Feature-
   Vector AVP in answer messages indicates that the default traffic
   abatement algorithm described in this specification is selected
   (while other traffic abatement algorithms may be supported), and no
   features other than abatement algorithms are supported.


   The following capability is defined in this document:

   OLR_DEFAULT_ALGO (0x0000000000000001)

      When this flag is set by the a DOIC reacting node, it means that
      the default traffic abatement (loss) algorithm is supported.  When
      this flag is set by a DOIC reporting node, it means that the loss
      algorithm will be used for requested overload abatement.

It should say:

7.2.  OC-Feature-Vector AVP

   The OC-Feature-Vector AVP (AVP Code 622) is of type Unsigned64 and
   contains a 64-bit flags field of announced capabilities of a DOIC
   node.  The value of zero (0) is reserved.

      Note: The value of zero (0) any DOIC node supports at least the 
            Loss algorithm. Therefore, the OC-Feature-Vector AVP 
            cannot be sent with no bit set.

   The OC-Feature-Vector sub-AVP is used to announce the DOIC features
   supported by the DOIC node, in the form of a flag-bits field in which
   each bit announces one feature or capability supported by the node.
   The absence of the OC-Feature-Vector AVP in request messages
   indicates that only the default traffic abatement algorithm described
   in this specification is supported.  The absence of the OC-Feature-
   Vector AVP in answer messages indicates that the default traffic
   abatement algorithm described in this specification is selected
   (while other traffic abatement algorithms may be supported), and no
   features other than abatement algorithms are supported.

   The following capability is defined in this document:

+---+------------------+----------------------------------------------+
|bit|  Feature Name    |  Description                                 |
+---+------------------+----------------------------------------------+
| 0 | OLR_DEFAULT_ALGO |When set by a DOIC reacting node, it means    |
|   |                  |that the default traffic abatement (loss)     |
|   |                  |algorithm is supported. When set by a DOIC    |
|   |                  |reporting node, it means that the loss        |
|   |                  |algorithm will be used for requested overload |
|   |                  |abatment.                                     |
+---+------------------+----------------------------------------------+

Notes:

The OC-Feature-Vector AVP is a 64-bit flag field and not a set of values (one per feature). Using the hexadecimal notation, it gives the feeling that there is a unique value for the OC-Feature-Vector AVP per supported capability, hich is incorrect. It is only required to define the use of each bit. This errata report has an impact on the associated IANA regisrty.

Section 9.2 says:

9.2.  New Registries

   Two new registries have been created in the "AVP Specific Values"
   sub-registry under the "Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting
   (AAA) Parameters" registry.

   A new "OC-Feature-Vector AVP Values (code 622)" registry has been
   created.  This registry contains the following:

      Feature Vector Value Name

      Feature Vector Value

      Specification defining the new value

   See Section 7.2 for the initial Feature Vector Value in the registry.
   This specification defines the value.  New values can be added to the
   registry using the Specification Required policy [RFC5226].

   A new "OC-Report-Type AVP Values (code 626)" registry has been
   created.  This registry contains the following:

      Report Type Value Name

      Report Type Value

      Specification defining the new value

   See Section 7.6 for the initial assignment in the registry.  New
   types can be added using the Specification Required policy [RFC5226].

   A new "OC-Feature-Vector AVP Values (code 622)" registry has been
   created.  This registry contains the following:

      Assigned Bit

      Feature Name

      Specification defining the new capability

   See Section 7.2 for the initial assigned bit in the registry.
   This specification defines the capbility announced by the setting of 
   this bit.  New values can be added to the registry using the 
   Specification Required policy [RFC5226].

   A new "OC-Report-Type AVP Values (code 626)" registry has been
   created.  This registry contains the following:

      Report Type Value Name

      Report Type Value

      Specification defining the new value

Notes:

This errata report is linked to the following errata report: Errata ID: 5277
The IANA registry created for the OC-Feature-Vector AVP Values (code 622) should only describe the use of the bit assigned to a given feature. There is no AVP value assigned to a given feature. The associated IANA registry should provide a table describing the setting of the bit assigned to a given feature/capability.
