So when ever iam Sending Host-Ip-Address as 10.77.11.194 IN is sending 5015 result code , if i am sending hex value then IN is not at all responding back, i tried all possible ways but no use. Thanks for your comment

Check Host-IP-Address in CEA , its a Hex value of Ip Address , if i send Host-IP-Address in same format, then no CEA from IN , IN is not at all responding, referred rfc3588, 4006, Scapv1 doc, and googled like any thing but there is no use and no clue, i tried with scapv1 test simulators, simulators are responding fine but when coming to real system , it is replying back with 5015 or there is no CEA.

The Host-IP-Address is consituted of IP address type (0001 for IPV4) and the IP address in hex form
so 10.77.11.194 should be coded as 0x00010a4d0bc2 or 0x0001c20b4d0a try both as I am not sure the correct coding.

Also 5015  is Invalid_message_length so cross check your message coding.
Tapesh has put a very nice blog  http://tech.queryhome.com/46345/diameter-protocol-result-code-summary

May be take a print and put it at your desk :)

Appending 0001 for Ipv4 happens only in SCAPv2.In SCAPv1 just the hex value of Ip Address is considered.Let me know if I am wrong

Not sure, just try both.
