Shahzad,

The key point here is for the CDF not to establish Diameter connections to ralf 
but instead for ralf to establish Diameter connections to the CDF.

If you're using the UCT IMS Client CDF, you'll need a few bugfixes before this 
will work.  Since I did this last night (from home), unfortunately I don't have 
the patches with me - but I should be able to share them tonight/tomorrow.

For my testing, I

·         created a separate host to run the CDF

·         configured my CDF (via the cdf.xml file)

o   to have the correct host and realm by changing the "DiameterPeer" XML 
element's "FQDN" and "Realm" attributes

o   not to establish outbound connections by removing the "Peer" XML element

o   to listen on the correct IP address and standard port (3868) by changing 
the "Acceptor" XML element's "bind" and "port" attributes

o   to use the correct application ID (3) by changing the "Auth" XML element's 
"id" attribute

·         configured DNS to have NAPTR ("AAA+D2T"), SRV and A records for a new 
"cdf.mirw.cw-ngv.com" realm, with the A record pointing at the host

·         on my ralf node, added a "billing_realm=cdf.mirw.cw-ngv.com" property 
to /etc/clearwater/config and restarted the ralf process with "sudo monit 
restart ralf".

I hope that helps.  As I say, in case you are using the UCT IMS Client CDF, 
I'll try to upload the patches later.

Thanks,

Matt

Asif,

Just to let you know, I had a play with the UCT IMS Client CDF last night - 
thanks for pointing it out!

Unfortunately, it's a bit incomplete and not very compliant (at least with 
recent versions of the IMS specs - it was last updated in 2009!).  With a 
little tweaking, I managed to get it to display Rf EVENTs but it doesn't give 
much detail, and it seemed to lock up quite frequently.

Does anyone know of any other open-source CDFs?

Thanks,

Matt

Asif,

If you were looking for the download link for the CDF, I found it at the bottom 
of 
https://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7844&release_id=16324.
  This server seems a bit unreliable, though, so it's also on Sourceforge at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/uctimsclient.berlios/files/uctimscharging1.0.1.tar.gz/download.

As Ellie says, though, we haven't yet tested with it - if you do, please let us 
know how you get on!

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Asif,

We've not found an open source CDF for our testing - we're going to take a look 
at the one you've suggested though!
We've been testing with internal tools/scripts that emulate a CDF.

Hi

We are planning to integrate a CDF with clearwater,during some searching have 
found one which is

http://uctimsclient.berlios.de/uctimscharging.html.
but i am unable to download it.
Can you please let me know if you have integrated and tested any CDF with 
clearwater so far.or if there is any specific open source CDF which can be 
integrated.

Regards
Asif
