The PCRF Node Test Case
If you purchased the PCRF Emulation feature, you can use the PCRF Node test case to emulate the PCRF and provide a configuration in which an Access Gateway (AGW) and Application Function (AF) can be tested.
|
NOTE: Although defined slightly different in their associated standards, both the 3GPP and 3GPP2 organizations have implemented a policy decision function and associated reference points. 3GPP2 defines the reference points as Tx and Ty, while 3GPP defines them as Rx and Gx. The Landslide PCRF Test application provides support for all four reference points in any combination. |
With this test case, you define:
-
Whether the Ty interface uses RADIUS signaling
-
Parameters in Diameter messages (Tx interface)
-
Parameters in Ty messages (Diameter protocol)
-
Rate of session establishment
-
Session termination interface
Measurements
Measurements collected for the basic PCRF Node test case (Diameter Base, RADIUS, TCP, and IP Instance processing measurements) are reported on the following tabs. Additional measurements may be available depending on the test activity and options executed with the test case.
