Subject: [AAA-WG]: realm based routing table clarification

2.7 of "Diameter Base Protocol" says that each entry in the realm-based routing table contains (among other fields) a Server Identifier.  The description actually says that this can be one or more servers the message is to be routed to.

My question is, what identifies a server?  Is it the value the server would send in the Origin-Host field in and CER messages it would send?  Or is it a combination of the values it would send for Origin-Realm and Origin-Host?

Another question:  Are Diameter Host identifers (values sent in Origin-Host in CER messages) required/expected to be unique, or just unique within their Realm?
