PNF Simulator config-assign and config-deploy use case

The objective of this page is to give you some basics about setting up ONAP PNF simulator and how to create a simple CDS blueprint model to perform config-assign and config-deploy using CDS REST API interfaces.

Setting up PNF simulator integration project

You can refer to PnP PNF Simulator wiki page to clone the GIT repo and start the required docker containers. We are interested in the sysrepo/sysrepo-netopeer2 docker container to load a simple YANG similar to vFW Packet Generator.

Start PNF simulator docker containers

cd $HOME

git clone https://github.com/onap/integration.git

Start PNF simulator

cd ~/integration/test/mocks/pnfsimulator

./simulator.sh stop

Verify the you have netopeer docker container are up and running. It will be mapped to host port 830

docker ps -a | grep netopeer

Create a simple packet generator YANG model (pg.yang)

module sample-plugin {

yang-version 1;
namespace "urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:sample-plugin";
prefix "sample-plugin";

description
"This YANG module defines the generic configuration and
operational data for sample-plugin in VPP";

revision "2016-09-18" {
description "Initial revision of sample-plugin model";
}

container sample-plugin {
uses sample-plugin-params;
description "Configuration data of sample-plugin in Honeycomb";

// READ
// curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:8181/restconf/config/sample-plugin:sample-plugin

// WRITE
// curl http://localhost:8181/restconf/operational/sample-plugin:sample-plugin

}

grouping sample-plugin-params {
container pg-streams {
list pg-stream {

key id;
leaf id {
type string;
}

leaf is-enabled {
type boolean;
}
}
}
}
}

Sample XML data definition for the above model to initialise one single PG stream (pg-data.xml)

<sample-plugin xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:sample-plugin"> <pg-streams> <pg-stream> <id>1</id> <is-enabled>true</is-enabled> </pg-stream> </pg-streams> </sample-plugin>

Copy the above two files into netopeer docker container (pg.yang & pg-data.xml) under /etc/sysrepo/data folder
