Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing priority routing at a Diameter node are disclosed. One exemplary method includes receiving, at a Diameter message processor associated with a DSR, a Diameter message from a first Diameter node. The method further includes assigning, at the Diameter message processor, a priority level indicator to the Diameter message. The method also includes routing the Diameter message with the priority level indicator to a second Diameter node. A second exemplary method includes receiving, at a Diameter message processor associated with a DSR, a Diameter message that includes a priority level indicator from a first Diameter node. The second method further includes applying, at the Diameter message processor, a routing action to the Diameter message based at least in part on the priority level indicator contained in the Diameter message.
