Abstract

A method for dynamic reaction to DIAMETER routing failures is disclosed. The method for dynamic reaction to DIAMETER routing failures includes receiving a DIAMETER message, calculating a statistic associated with the route of the message, testing if the message is an unable_to_deliver message type, and if it is, testing the calculated statistic against a criterion. In the event the statistic exceeds the criterion, an action pertinent to the route which had a delivery failure is taken. The method for dynamic reaction to DIAMETER routing failures provides for dynamic management of routes at the node level in response to delivery failures. The method for dynamic reaction to DIAMETER routing failures is particularly useful for overcoming bandwidth usage in terms of delivery failures known in the art.
