The RoApplication is packaged as a Diameter application similar to the Sh application used for managing profile data. The Ro Diameter application can be configured and enabled by editing the Diameter configuration file located in Domain_Home/config/custom/diameter.xml, or by using the Diameter console extension.

The application init parameter ocs.host specifies the host identity of the OCF. The OCF host must also be configured in the peer table as part of the global Diameter configuration. Alternately, the init parameter ocs.realm can be used to specify more than one OCF host using realm-based routing. The corresponding realm definition must also exist in the global Diameter configuration.

Example 4-1 shows a sample excerpt from diameter.xml that enables Ro with an OCF host name of "myocs.example.com."
