This page describes how to demonstrate the entire flow from Non-Rt RIC Controlpanel -> A1 controller in SDNC -> Near Realtime Ric Simulator

Overview of the End to End call

Details of the architecture can be found from the following link: Release A

Procedure to establish the End to End call

Click on Config and the screen below with STD_QosNudging_0.2.0 policy type should open

Non-Realtime RIC > Testing End to End call in release A > start_policy_creation.png

Non-Realtime RIC > Testing End to End call in release A > input_for_policy_creation.png

Choose your ric (ric1 or ric2) from drop-down menu and provide any arbitrary values for QoS Id, Ue Id and Priority

Non-Realtime RIC > Testing End to End call in release A > submit_policy_creation.png

Submit the policy (you then need to also press Close to return from creation view)
An entry to the chosen nearRT-RIC simulator console/log should appear (see, for example, docker logs ric1 in case ric1 policy was created):

You may repeat the creation process a few times for different rics - below we see one policy created to ric1 and two to ric2

Even though the dashboard allows changing any value, the simulator will only accept Priority changes
Modifications are submitted in the same way as in creation, and the resulting simulator log should also be identical to the one we saw in creation
