  1. Can i get some information about Diameter Hd interface between HSS and HLR?
    What are the diameter messages exchanged between the two nodes during 4G to 3G fallback and vice versa?

  4. Is it legal to send a Diameter request to one host (dest-host AVP = x) and receive a diameter answer from a different host (orig-host AVP=Y)?
    thanks

    1. Diameter answer doesn't use destination host/realm to reach the destination. it just back trace the path by which request was received. So you can't send Diameter answer from different host.

    2. Thanks for the answer but Im not sure I understand.
      Can you alobrate regaring the trace back?
      Because the problem I thought about is that a peer receives an answer from a different peer then expected. You write that there will be problem with routing the answer and I dont understand why.
      thanks

    3. Hi Ben,
      In your scenario you must be using realm based routing on DRA, so DRA is not considering the Destination host AVP in request message.
      You must be sending the request to some host X through DRA, but getting response from host Y.
      The actual thing is that host Y have received the request instead of host X because of the routing policy at DRA.

      Note: Diameter Answer will always come from only the host which has received the request.

  5. Hi,
    According 3GPP TS 32.299 do you know if there is any avp to carry the imsi of the called party address if it is available? For exemple for SIP URI forrmat numbers do you know if MTAS support the imsi parameter inside the called-party-address avp?
