Re: [Dime] Ben's comments on 4.3, third paragraph from end

Steve,
I'm not sure.
My understanding is:
1. Two answer messages (with same application id) sent by a reporting node while not in an overload condition can have different selected overload abatement algorithms in the OC-Feature-Vector AVP.
2. Two answer messages (with same application id) sent by a reporting node while in an (the same) overload condition must have the same selected overload abatement algorithm in the OC-Feature-Vector AVP if the two sets A and B are identical, where A is the intersection of the set of advertized algorithms received in the request that corresponds to the one answer message with the set of algorithms that are supported (at the time the one answer message is sent) by the reporting node, and B is the intersection of the set of advertized algorithms received in the request that corresponds to the other answer message with the set of algorithms that are supported (at the time the other answer message is sent) by the reporting node; And the set of algorithms supported by the reporting node must not change during an overload condition.

This ensures that reacting nodes, while not changing the set of advertized algorithms, will not receive a change of the selected algorithm during an overload condition (without the need for the reporting node to keep history data).

  I have removed the last sentence in the paragraph in question.  The 
before and after for the paragraph is as follows:

Before:

    Reporting nodes can change the overload abatement algorithm indicated
    in the OC-Feature-Vector AVP if the reporting node is not currently
    in an overload condition and sending overload reports.  The reporting
    node is not allowed to change the overload abatement algorithm while
    the reporting node is in an overload condition.

After:

    Reporting nodes can change the overload abatement algorithm indicated
    in the OC-Feature-Vector AVP if the reporting node is not currently
    in an overload condition and sending overload reports.

Ulrich,

I'm not sure I understand your point about the assignment of commonly 
supported algorithms.  Are you ok with this change?

Regards,

Steve

Of course, if the reacting node changes the set of announced capabilities, the reporting node may change (or even need to  change) the selected algorithm. What is not allowed to be changed by the reporting node during an overload condition is the deterministic function that assignes to every set of commonly supported algorithms a distinct selected algorithm.
