The IESG has received a request from the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions WG (dime) to consider the following document: - 'Diameter Routing Message Priority' <draft-ietf-dime-drmp-04.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-03-24. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract When making routing and resource allocation decisions, Diameter nodes currently have no generic mechanism to determine the relative priority of Diameter messages. This document addresses this by defining a mechanism to allow Diameter endpoints to indicate the relative priority of Diameter transactions. With this information Diameter nodes can factor that priority into routing, resource allocation and overload abatement decisions. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dime-drmp/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dime-drmp/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
