Call from CCSDK A1 Controller to NearRT-RIC simulator

Testing calls with OSC CCSDK A1 Controller towards NearRT-RIC simulator can be done by using ODL GUI. Dashborad and policy-agent does not need to be running in this case.

Preparation

See Release A - Build/Run for building and starting the environment. If following those instructions, just skip steps:

• Release A - Build/Run#RunPolicy-agentDockerContainer

• Release A - Build/Run#RunNon-RT-RICDashboardDockerContainer

Now only "a1-controller-container" and "sdnc_db_container" and simulators are running.

Perform Policy Operations via Open Daylight GUI

• Open GUI: Release A - Build/Run#OpenDaylightGUI
• Click Sub API:
