Diameter Quality-of-Service Application
Abstract
This document describes the framework, messages, and procedures for
the Diameter Quality-of-Service (QoS) application. The Diameter QoS
application allows network elements to interact with Diameter servers
when allocating QoS resources in the network. In particular, two
modes of operation, namely "Pull" and "Push", are defined.
