[SR-Users] Playing with Diameter - Error opening connection to :3868

[Steve Bucklin]

Hello all,

I am brand new to this list and I am also on a steep learning curve with 
Kamailio and Diameter.... so please be gentle as I am just starting!

I am trying to look at the Diameter signaling and have a glimpse into 
the information passed. I have set up a compiled 5.2 on CentOS 7. I 
suspect that I am missing something obvious, but not sure what. I am 
seeing this error:


INFO: cdp [peerstatemachine.c:525]: I_Snd_Conn_Req(): I_Snd_Conn_Req(): Peer

peer_connect(): peer_connect(): Error opening connection to :3868 >Name 
or service not known


It looks like the FQDN in the diameter.xml under 'peer' is not being 
resolved, as it is seeing port 3868? Any pointers would be greatly taken :-)

Here is my diameter:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DiameterPeer
         FQDN="mra1.testservers.xxx"
         Realm="testservers.xxx"
         Vendor_Id="10415"
         Product_Name="CDiameterPeer"
         AcceptUnknownPeers="1"
         DropUnknownOnDisconnect="1"
         Tc="30"
         Workers="16"
         QueueLength="32"
         TransactionTimeout="5"
         SessionsHashSize="128"
         DefaultAuthSessionTimeout="3600"
         MaxAuthSessionTimeout="3600"
 >

         <peer FGDN="mra2.testservers.xxx" Realm="testservers.xxx" 
proto="sctp" port="3868"/>

         <Acceptor port="3868" bind="192.168.1.20"/>

         <Auth id="16777251" vendor="10415"/>   <!-- 3GPP S6a/S6d -->

         <SupportedVendor vendor="10415" />

</DiameterPeer>


And here is what I am getting on the startup:
