Title : Diameter Overload Control Requirements

Abstract:
When a Diameter server or agent becomes overloaded, it needs to be
able to gracefully reduce its load, typically by informing clients to
reduce sending traffic for some period of time. Otherwise, it must
continue to expend resources parsing and responding to Diameter
messages, possibly resulting in congestion collapse. The existing
Diameter mechanisms are not sufficient for this purpose. This
document describes the limitations of the existing mechanisms.
Requirements for new overload management mechanisms are also
provided.
