I know Diameter client can re-transmit the request message until it receives the answer message.
But what about when a Diameter node has sent answer message to the last received request from its peer and that's is not received but its peer. In this case, from Diameter client node transaction is not completed since it did not receive answer message but from other node point of view it has responded with answer and transaction is completed.

Suppose in S6a interface which is a stateless interface an Engine (translation agent) has been placed in between MME and HSS for routing purpose and to translate the Diameter message in to Radius.

As the client-servers are not maintaining the state so after receiving the answer they will delete the session. But what about the agent who is maintaining the state there? hOW he would be informed that it can delete the session?

Now my query, Does a Diameter node keep its potential peers information in advance ?
