  • On receiving the registration message from a PDP, PAP checks and assigns it to a subgroup under the group. PAP sends PDP_UPDATE message. PAP also sends the pdpHeartbeatIntervalMs which is the time interval in which PDPs should send heartbeats to PAP. Currently (In first phase) OPA-PDP handles only the pdpHeartbeatIntervalMs and starts a timer for sending STATUS messages periodically. OPA-PDP sends PDP_STATUS response to PDP_UPDATE message.
