4 Application identifiers
The Diameter applications are identified with the application identifiers as specified in the RFC 3588 [9]. There are two
kind of applications: IETF standards track applications and vendor specific applications. All application identifiers are
assigned by IANA [12]. This chapter lists the application identifiers assigned by IANA to all 3GPP Diameter
applications.

The application identifiers are transferred in Diameter command’s header in the Application-ID field.

4.1 3GPP specific application identifiers

The 3GPP specific application identifiers allocated by IANA are listed in the following table.

5 Command codes
The command codes are used for communicating the command associated with the Diameter message. The command
code is carried in the Diameter header’s Command-Code field. The command codes can be divided into standard
command codes allocated by IANA and experimental command codes for testing purposes only.

5.1 Command codes allocated for 3GPP

Based on the IETF RFC 3589 [10] the IANA has allocated a standard command code range 300 - 313 for 3GPP. The
command codes are presented in the following table.

6 Vendor identifier
The vendor identifier (also known as Enterprise number) indicates the vendor specific attributes, result codes and
application identifiers in Diameter commands. The vendor identifier is used in the Vendor-ID field of the AVP header
and in the Vendor-Id AVP. The Vendor-Id AVP is used to identify the vendor in the Vendor-Specific-Application-Id
and Experimental-Result-Code grouped AVPs.

6.1 3GPP’s vendor identifier

The IANA has allocated a vendor identifier value 10415 for 3GPP [11].

7 Attribute-Value-Pair codes
The AVP codes are used together with the vendor identifier to identify each attribute uniquely. There are multiple AVP
namespaces. The IETF IANA namespace, that is, the AVPs with vendor identifier zero or without vendor identifier, is
controlled by IANA. Each vendor controls the AVP codes within their AVP namespaces.

7.1 3GPP specific AVP codes

The 3GPP specific AVPs have the Vendor-Specific bit ('V' bit) set in the AVP header and they carry the 3GPP’s vendor
identifier in the Vendor-ID field of the AVP header. The 3GPP specific AVP codes are presented in the following table.

8 Experimental result codes

The Diameter answer messages must carry either Result-Code AVP or Experimental-Result AVP. The values of Result-
Code AVP are controlled by IANA. The Experimental-Result AVP is a grouped AVP containing the Vendor-Id AVP
and Experimental-Result-Code AVP, thus the experimental result codes are controlled in a vendor-specific manner.

8.1 3GPP specific result codes

The 3GPP specific result codes are always transferred in the Experimental-Result AVP, which has the Vendor-Id with
value of 3GPP’s vendor identifier. The 3GPP specific result codes shall follow the same classification as defined for the
values of Result-Code AVP in IETF RFC 3588 [9]. That means, the result codes are grouped to following ranges:

- 1xxx (Informational)

- 2xxx (Success)

- 4xxx (Transient Failures)

- 5xxx (Permanent Failures)

8.1.1 Informational
The Informational result codes shall use the values from 1001 to 1999 in the Experimental-Result-Code AVP.

Editor’s note: No informational result codes have been yet defined in 3GPP.

8.1.2 Success
The Success result codes shall use the values from 2001 to 2999 in the Experimental-Result-Code AVP. The reserved
3GPP specific Success result codes are presented in the following table.

Annex A (informative):
Assignment of the Diameter codes and identifiers in 3GPP
This annex defines the recommended assignment procedure of Diameter codes and identifiers within the 3GPP.

A.1 Application identifiers

If a working group detects it will require a new application identifier, it should contact the 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 via a
Liaison Statement. The LS shall contain the name of the Diameter application and a reference to the corresponding
3GPP TS. The 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 will then request the application identifier from IANA. When the application
identifier is received, the corresponding working group will be informed by 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 and the table 4.1 in
this specification will be updated.

According to RFC 3588 the creation of a new application should be avoided if at all possible and therefore it is
recommended to use the existing application identifiers whenever possible.

A.2 Command codes

If a working group detects there is a need for a new command code(s) from the 3GPP’s range, it should contact the
3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 via an LS. The LS shall contain the reference to the 3GPP TS, which specifies the command(s).
The 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 will inform the assigned command code(s) to the corresponding working group and the
table 5.1 in this specification will be updated.

It should be noted that the standard command codes allocated for 3GPP are scarce resource and getting new ones would
require IETF specification work to be done. Therefore it is recommended to use the existing command codes
whenever possible.

A.3 AVP codes

If a working group detects a Diameter application needs new 3GPP specific AVP codes, it should contact the 3GPP
TSG-CN WG 4 via an LS. The LS shall contain the name of the Diameter application and a reference to the
corresponding 3GPP TS. The 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 will allocate a range of 100 AVP codes for the application. The
range will be informed to the corresponding working group and the table 7.1 will be updated in this specification to
show the reserved range. The working group can use the allocated range as a working assumption when defining the
actual AVPs.

When the corresponding working group has specified the AVPs, and the specification has been approved and is under
CR control, it should inform the AVPs to the 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 via an LS. The LS should list the used AVP codes
in the form of the table 7.1.

If there will be defined new AVPs for a Diameter application through the CR procedure, the assigned AVP range can be
used, but the 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 should be also informed about the new AVP codes via an LS.

Re-using of the existing AVPs is recommended, but special attention should be paid on the use of enumerated AVPs.
Defining new values for an enumerated AVP should be agreed case by case with the working group responsible of the
particular enumerated AVP. 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 shall be informed via an LS about the new values assigned to the
enumerated AVP.

A.4 Result codes

If a working group detects a Diameter application needs new 3GPP specific result codes, it should contact the 3GPP
TSG-CN WG 4 via an LS. The LS shall contain the name of the Diameter application and a reference to the
corresponding 3GPP TS. The 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 will allocate a range of 20 result codes from each required result

3GPP
Release 9 25 3GPP TS 29.230 V9.8.0 (2011-09)

code group for the application. The ranges will be informed to the corresponding working group and the tables in the
chapter 8 of this specification will be updated to show the reserved ranges. The working group can use the allocated
ranges as a working assumption when defining the actual result codes.

When the corresponding working group has specified the result codes, and the specification has been approved and is
under CR control, it should convey the codes to the 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 via an LS. The LS should list the used result
codes in the form of the tables in chapter 8.

If there will be defined new result codes for a Diameter application through the CR procedure, the assigned result code
ranges can be used, but the 3GPP TSG-CN WG 4 should be also informed about the new result codes via an LS.

Re-using of the existing result codes is recommended.
