Diameter Proxy
The proxy acts as an application gateway for Diameter. It gets the configuration information at process startup and
decides which Diameter peer has to be contacted for each application. It establishes the peer connection if no peer
connection already exists. Upon receiving the answer, it uses the Diameter session ID to identify to which application
the message is intended.

Each PSC has a Diameter proxy identified by the IPv6 origin host address. If the number of configured origin hosts is
lesser than the number of active PSCs, some (i.e. those number where no origin hosts associated with) PSCs will not
activate Diameter processing at all, and instead notify administrators of the erroneous configuration with syslog/traps.

If the number of configured origin hosts is greater than the number of active PSCs, the application will automatically
