1.  Clone and Checkout Ran-Sim Controller(use Dublin branch)

            git clone https://github.com/onap-oof-pci-poc/ran-sim.git

            cd ran-sim/ransim/

...

            e) GridSize: (Applicable only for HONEYCOMB representation)

                        The number of cells that can be accommodated along one side of the cluster for an auto-generated layout.

...

            g) sdnrServerIp:

                        SDNR server IP address (change the value                       Neglect(Refer point 5 to update SDNR details).

           l)dumpFileName

                        Location of the dumpfile to load the topology.

                        The dump file is loaded from '<YOURFOLDER>/ransim/docker/config5. To form the cluster from dump file (random simulation) update the cell details in 'SIM_Ran_config.json'. A sample file is also included.

9. Run the following three commands in the terminal:

                        'mvn prepare-package'

                        'docker build -t onap/ransim ransim-docker'

                        'docker-compose up'

 Note: Use docker compose version 1.6.0 or above.

12. Try the following url in Websocket client extension in the web browser to verify the connectivity:

dump file - 'sample.json' contains deatils of 1000 cells.

                         For the controller to access the dump file from the the above location use the path - /tmp/ransim-install/config/sample.json

Edit or delete operation on different cells in the topology of the agent will notify the Ransim Controller which will update GUI & DB to be in Sync.

Additional information

To run each instance of HoneyComb it requires ~353 MB of memory. Still we are working on optimizing the simulator configuration to run only required processes for ONAP setup.
