Abstract

According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a system for performing Diameter overload control. The system occurs at a Diameter routing node. The system includes a network interface for receiving a Diameter message. The system also includes a Diameter overload control unit configured to detect an overload condition for a Diameter session associated with the Diameter message and to communicate an indication of the overload condition to a second Diameter node using a Diameter message defined for a purpose other than overload control.
