origin host host_name
Specifies the host name to bind the Diameter endpoint.
host_name
must be the local Diameter host name. In
releases prior to 16.0, the host name must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 64 characters.
In 16.0 and later releases, the host name must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 255 characters.
In 16.0 and later releases, the host name must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 255 characters.
address ipv4/ipv6_address
Specifies the IP address to bind the Diameter endpoint using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-
hexadecimal notation. This address must be one of the addresses of a chassis interface configured within the
context in which Diameter is configured.
hexadecimal notation. This address must be one of the addresses of a chassis interface configured within the
context in which Diameter is configured.
port port_number
Specifies the port number for the Diameter endpoint (on inbound connections). The port number must be an
integer from 1 through 65535. Default: 3868
Port number in the origin host should be configured only when the chassis is running in server mode, i.e.

In this case it will open a listening socket on the specified port. For configurations where chassis is operating
as a client, port number should not be included. In this case, a random source port will be chosen for outgoing
connections. This is applicable for both with or without multi-homing.

Important:
Currently if multi-homing is configured, then the specified port is used instead of randomly chosen
port. This is done so that application knows which port is used by the kernel as it will have to use the same port while
