  • Verify HV-VES configuration from HV-VES docker container :

docker exec -ti ad910797eb72 bash root@ad910797eb72:/opt/ves-hv-collector# curl http://consul:8500/v1/kv/veshv-config [{"CreateIndex":5,"ModifyIndex":5,"LockIndex":0,"Key":"veshv-config","Flags":0,"Value":"eyJrYWZrYUJvb3RzdHJhcFNlcnZlcnMiOiAia2Fma2E6OTA5MiIsInJvdXRpbmciOlt7ImZyb21Eb21haW4iOjExLCJ0b1RvcGljIjoidmVzX2h2UmFuTWVhcyJ9XX0="}]

HV-VES simulator standalone mode usage

  • Start HV-VES container log :

docker logs --tail 0 -f ad910797eb7

  • Start Kafka consumer log :

  • Send message using simulator.sh script :

  • Check HV-VES log :

  • Check Kafka consumer log :

HV-VES xNF simulator integration to ONAP

  • Check if xNF simulator is up :

  • Forward Kafka pod port to node one :

  • Forward HV-VES simulator 9092 port to the node from previous step :

  • Send event from xNF simulator :

  • Check HV-VES log :

  • Check Kafka topic content :

Casablanca

Dublin onward

  • Decode message from Kafka topic :

Casablanca

Dublin onward

HV-VES xNF message simulation from shell

  • Prepare HV-VES VesEvent message in hex dump format :





  • Send WFP message to HV-VES :

  • Decode the message from Kafka topic :

Casablanca

Dublin onward

HV-VES with SSL enabled

Generate testing PKCS #12 files using https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=dcaegen2/collectors/hv-ves.git;a=blob_plain;f=tools/ssl/gen-certs.sh;hb=refs/heads/master and store in k8s nfs dir /dockerdata-nfs/ssl
Edit HV-VES deployment (kubectl -n onap edit deployment/dep-dcae-hv-ves-collector) by removing VESHV_SSL_DISABLE flag and adding VESHV_TRUST_STORE, VESHV_KEY_STORE, VESHV_TRUST_STORE_PASSWORD, VESHV_KEY_STORE_PASSWORD ones.
Add entry to mount node:/dockerdata-nfs/ssl to containter:/etc/ves-hv :

Deploy HV-VES simulator in onapmode with tls enabled using Heat template : https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=integration.git;a=blob_plain;f=test/mocks/hvvessimulator/hvves_sim.yaml;hb=HEAD

Prepare CA, Server and Client Private Keys and CSR.

Sign Server and Client certificates by the CA.

Create passwordless p12 CA and Server certificate files.

Enable SSL feature in HV-VES collector via Consul UI :
http://<node_ip>:30270/ui/#/dc1/kv/dcae-hv-ves-collector/edit

Combine Client Private Key and Public Certificate into PEM file.

Send message to HV-VES collector using openssl command.
