Dear Glen and all,

I know Jouni has two use cases. Jouni, Steve and I talked about them in
Vancouver. I am trying to describe as below. If it is not precise, Jouni,
please correct me.

 

Use case #1:

There are several visiting network, and one home network. 

Type 1# service should go via intermediate node #a in visiting network A#.

Type 2# service should go via intermediate node #b in visiting network B#.

......

This use case can be for both mobile and fix network operator.

[gwz] 

So what happens if node #a is down?  Is Type 1# service
disabled/unavailable?  If not, what's the point of the routing, given that
it is unnecessary; if so, doesn't that sort of defeat the purpose of
fail-over?

[/gwz]

 

Use case #2:

The charging data should be sent from that node.

[gwz] 

Does this mean that the data path must also pass through that node?

[/gwz]

 

This use case can be for mobile operator.

 

B. R.
Tina
