Where to setup username/passwords in FreeDiameter

+1 vote
653 views

I am running freeDiameter on a RHEL6 server.I have installed and configured it to use the Radius Gateway extension.
I can successfully send radius messages to freeDiameter, and get radius messages back. Now I want to set up usernames and passwords. With freeRadius, I used an LDAP database.Ideally, I would like to use an LDAP database with freeDiameter. Is this possible?If not, where/how can I set up the usernames and passwords for my testing?

There is no LDAP-based authentication extension at the moment available in freeDiameter, it only have EAP-MD5 and EAP-TLS fully functional at the moment.

If you are using EAP authentication with EAP-MD5 method, you need to store the usernames and passwords in the database as configured in the app_diameap.fdx configuration file. If you are using EAP-TLS, it is similar (but with certificates instead of passwords).

How to use Fault tolerance with freediameter?

I have configured freediameter server and client application and exchanged messages using test app. I would like to know how High availability or fault tolerance is supported for sessions in Free diameter. I am planning to write Ro and Rf extensions over fd and would require some HA. Basically I am looking for a method to extract stack session states and store in in my app and during failover use this info to re-build the stack state in standby.

Any help would be highly appreciated

Opensource client for freeDiameter-server?

We have a requirement wherein we have been given a Diameter server, and we need to deploy a "Diameter-Credit-Control-Application" scenario.

We require a client for the same. Also, ability to modify the client-code will be very useful.

Does there exist a (open-source) client for the same? Any pointers?

Two different entities using freeDiameter

My project needs the freeDiameter to act as a server connected to two telecom entities (HSS and MME) each one with different IP address and with different protocol and AVP-IDs.Do you think Is it possible to make the freeDiameter to act with some minor changes as above or it is very complicated and I should think developing a connector which will connect between the two different freeDiameter servers (one for the HSS and the second for the MME) ? Please kindly advise.
