  • Diameter-Based Protocol in the IP Multimedia Subsystem
    International Journal of Soft Computing and Engineering (IJSCE) ISSN: 2231 – 2307, Volume- 1 Issue- 6, January 2012 Diameter-Based Protocol in the IP Multimedia Subsystem Vinay Kumar.S.B, Manjula N Harihar Abstract— The Diameter protocol was initially developed by II. ROLE OF DIAMETER IN IMS the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as an Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) framework The IMS is based on a horizontally layered architecture, intended for applications such as remote network access and IP consisting of three layers, namely, Service Layer, Control mobility. Diameter was further embraced by the Third Generation Layer, and Connectivity Layer. Service Layer comprises Partnership Project (3GPP) as the key protocol for AAA and application and content servers to execute value-added mobility management in 3G networks. The paper discusses the use services for the user. Control layer comprises network control of Diameter in the scope of the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) as servers for managing call or session set-up, modification and specified by 3GPP. This paper presents a solution for the problem release. The most important of these is the Call Session of how to provide authentication, authorization and accounting Control Function (CSCF). Connectivity Layer comprises of (AAA) for multi-domain interacting services by referring open routers and switches, for both the backbone and the access diameter. We have studied the case of ‘FoneFreez’, a service that provides interaction between different basic services, like network telephony and television. The involvement of several parties like A. IMS functions television provider, telephony provider etc., secure interaction between multiple domains must be assured.

This is why IETF has developed the protocol Diameter as a next generations AAA protocol. The objective of this thesis is to account for the work conducted with Diameter as well as to determine if it is going to become the major AAA protocol of the next generation. In this thesis, I describe what Diameter is, its close integration with the Mobile IP protocol and its other uses. As Diameter is based on RADIUS an introduction to AAA and RADIUS is given in order to comprehend where we are today and where we are going as well as to why.

  • Comparison Between RADIUS and Diameter
    Comparison between RADIUS and Diameter Anna Hosia Helsinki University of Technology Telecommunications Software and Multimedia Laboratory May 28, 2003 Abstract RADIUS is a widely deployed protocol for AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) control, while Diameter is a draft planned as its successor. The protocols resemble each other in many ways. For example, their packet formats are quite similar, and they provide support for same kind of AAA mechanisms. However, while RADIUS is a pure client-server protocol, Diameter is more of a peer-to-peer protocol, as also Diameter servers can ask for certain services. On the transport layer RADIUS uses connectionless UDP, while Diameter utilizes either SCTP or TCP. Diameter's operation is more reliable, mainly because its spec- ification addresses issues such as fail-over procedure and proxy/agent support, while RADIUS specification omits these subjects. One of Diameter's strengths is that it is backward compatible with RADIUS. Di- ameter contains also mechanisms for version compatibility support, while RADIUS specification hardly discusses the issue. For instance, Diameter supports error mes- sages while RADIUS does not. Both protocols are designed to be extensible, but Diameter provides more extension mechanisms. Diameter also scales far better than RADIUS, mainly because RADIUS has no provisions for congestion control. Diameter always uses some kind of transport layer security scheme, such as IPSe- curity or TLS, while for example IPSecurity support for RADIUS is optional. This affects mechanisms for entity authentication and overall data security making Diam- eter a more secure protocol. 1 Introduction RADIUS and Diameter are both protocols for AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) control.
