| 18 | A1 Policy Management Service - Introduction |
| 19 | ******************************************* |
| 20 | |
| 21 | The A1 Policy Management Service ("Policy Agent") is an SMO/NONRTRIC service above the NONRTRIC A1 Adaptor/Controller |
| 22 | that provides: |
| 23 | |
| 24 | * Unified REST & DMAAP APIs for managing A1 Policies in all Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs |
| 25 | * Synchronized view of registered "services" (e.g. R-APP, GUI, etc) |
| 26 | * Synchronized view of policy instances for each "service" |
| 27 | * Synchronized view of policy instances in all Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs |
| 28 | * Synchronized view of policy types in all Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs |
| 29 | * Policy Query API (e.g. per Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC, per "service", per policy type) |
| 30 | * An initial interface for unified Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC ID to Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC address mapping. |
| 31 | (Note: may also later act as adaptor to A&AI, CMDBs etc. to "find" Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs - TBC) |
| 32 | * An Initial "O1 ManagedElement" mapping database & interface to find appropriate Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC for RAN elements. |
| 33 | (Note: may also later act as adaptor to A&AI, RuntimeDB, other CMDBs etc. - TBC) |
| 34 | * Monitors all Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs and recovers from inconsistencies (Note: e.g. Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC restarts) |
| 35 | * Support for different Southbound connectors on a per Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC basis. (Note: e.g. different A1 |
| 36 | versions, different Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC versions, different A1 adapters, different or proprietary A1 |
| 37 | controllers/EMSs) |

| 39 | *************************************** |
| 40 | A1 Policy Management Service - REST NBI |
| 41 | *************************************** |
| 42 | |
| 43 | This is the north bound API of the A1 Policy Management Service ("Policy Agent"). This API allows *services* to interact |
| 44 | with the Policy Agent using REST. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | By registering with the Policy Agent, the Policy Agent takes responsibility for synchronizing the policies created by |
| 47 | the service in the Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs. This means that if a Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC restarts, the Policy Agent |
| 48 | will try to recreate all the policies residing in the Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC once it is started again. If this is not |
| 49 | possible, it will remove all policies belonging to the Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC. |
| 50 | |
| 51 | The Policy Agent also keeps an updated view of the policy types available, and which Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs that |
| 52 | support which types. Also, the Policy Agent can tell if a Managed Element is managed by a certain |
| 53 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC. |
| 54 | |
| 55 | The Policy Agent NBI has four distinct parts, described in the sections below: |
| 56 | |
| 57 | * Service Management |
| 58 | * Policy Management |
| 59 | * Near-RT RIC Repository |
| 60 | * Health Check |

| 67 | Service Management |
| 68 | ================== |
| 69 | |
| 70 | A service can register itself in the Policy Agent. |
| 71 | |
| 72 | By providing a callback URL the service can get notifications from the Policy Agent. |
| 73 | |
| 74 | A service can also register a "*Keep Alive Interval*", in seconds. By doing this the service promises to call the |
| 75 | Policy Agent's "*Keep Alive*" method, or else create or delete policies, more often than the "*Keep Alive Interval*" |
| 76 | measured in seconds. If the service, for some reason, is not able to do this, the Policy Agent will consider that the |
| 77 | service has died or vanished and will then delete all its policies, both in the internal repository and in the |
| 78 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs where they were earlier created. **Note!** |nbsp| If the service does not provide a value for |
| 79 | "*Keep Alive Interval*", then the service maintains full responsibility to delete all of its policies when they are no |
| 80 | longer needed. |

| 288 | |
| 289 | Policy Management |
| 290 | ================= |
| 291 | |
| 292 | Policies are based on types. The set of available policy types is determined by the set of policy types supported by |
| 293 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs. At startup, the Policy Agent queries all Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs for their supported types |
| 294 | and stores them in its internal repository. It then checks this at regular intervals to keep the repository of types up |
| 295 | to date. Policy types cannot be created, updated or deleted using this interface since this must be done via the |
| 296 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs. |
| 297 | |
| 298 | Policies can be queried, created, updated, and deleted. A policy is always created in a specific |
| 299 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC. |
| 300 | |
| 301 | When a policy is created, the Policy Agent stores information about it in its internal repository. At regular intervals, |
| 302 | it then checks with all Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs that this repository is synchronized. If, for some reason, there is an |
| 303 | inconsistency, the Policy Agent will start a synchronization job and try to reflect the status of the |
| 304 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC. If this fails, the Policy Agent will delete all policies for the specific |
| 305 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC in the internal repository and set its state to *UNKNOWN*. This means that no interaction with |
| 306 | the Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC is possible until the Policy Agent has been able to contact it again and re-synchronize its |
| 307 | state in the repository. |
| 308 | |
| 309 | Policy Types |
| 310 | ------------ |
| 311 | |
| 312 | A policy type defines a name and a JSON schema that constrains the content of a policy of that type. |

| 523 | Policy |
| 524 | ------ |
| 525 | |
| 526 | A policy is defined by its type schema. |
| 527 | |
| 528 | Once a service has created a policy, it is the service's responsibility to maintain its life cycle. Since policies are |
| 529 | transient, they will not survive a restart of a Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC. But this is handled by the Policy Agent. When |
| 530 | a Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC has been restarted, the Policy Agent will try to recreate the policies in the |
| 531 | Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC that are stored in its local repository. This means that the service always must delete any |
| 532 | policy it has created. There are only two exceptions, see below: |
| 533 | |
| 534 | - The service has registered a "*Keep Alive Interval*", then its policies will be deleted if it fails to notify the |
| 535 | Policy Agent in due time. |
| 536 | - The Policy Agent completely fails to synchronize with a Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC. |

| 1057 | |
| 1058 | The Policy Agent also provides the possibility to use DMaap to handle policies according to the A1 specification. The |
| 1059 | Policy Agent polls the DMaaP Message Router regularly and processes any messages targeted to it. The response is then |
| 1060 | published back to the DMaaP Message Router with the result of the call. |
| 1061 | |
| 1062 | Send Message |
| 1063 | ============ |
| 1064 | |
| 1065 | The message to send is a JSON like the one below. The "*url*" is one of the URLs described under |
| 1066 | :ref:`policy-management`. The "*target*" must always be "*policy-agent*" for the message to be processed by the Policy |
| 1067 | Agent. The "*operation*" can be one of the following: "*GET | PUT | POST | DELETE*". :: |

| 1081 | Example |
| 1082 | ------- |
| 1083 | |
| 1084 | To get all policy types for a specific Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RIC the following message should be sent to DMaaP Message |
