r74 r325 1 The freeDiameter daemon implements the Diameter base protocol. 2 Loadable extensions add the logic of Diameter applications and advanced use of the daemon. 1 freeDiameter is an implementation of Diameter. 2 3 Diameter is a protocol designed to carry Authentication, Authorization and 4 Accounting (AAA) payload. It is an evolution of the RADIUS protocol (as the 5 name suggests). 6 7 Diameter is an extensible protocol. RFC3588 (currently under revision) defines the 8 Base Protocol that all Diameter nodes must support, while other documents define 9 the additional protocol support for specific applications. Such applications include 10 for example Network Access Servers (RFC4005), EAP (RFC4072), ... 11 12 13 The implementation consists in several components: 14 - libfreeDiameter : the shared library provides the functions to manipulate Diameter 15 messages and dictionary. This library is meant to be re-used for other projects 16 that would require parsing or manipulating Diameter messages. 17 18 - freeDiameterd : the daemon establishes the network connections with other Diameter 19 peers and performs the tasks described in Diameter Base Protocol, such as 20 watchdogs, basic routing, ... 21 22 - extensions : the extensions provide the mean to augment the features of the 23 freeDiameterd daemon. Extensions can provide the handling of a Diameter 24 application, but also advanced routing features, peer management, etc. 25 26 3 27 See http://aaa.koganei.wide.ad.jp/ for more information on the project. 28 4 29 freeDiameter was previously known as the "waaad" project (WIDE AAA Daemon) 5 30 … … 11 36 12 37 See INSTALL for information on building and using this software. 13 14 --------------15 Known possible bugs:16 - management of the Host-IP-Address values in CER/CEA may be strange (for TCP and SCTP)17
