50 The O1 interface simulator is a framework that provides simulated network functions (NF) with a management plane exposed through a NETCONF/YANG interface, using YANG models defined in O-RAN.
58 - [change] moved all NETCONF x-paths to xpath.h for easier management and cleaner codebase
60 - [feature-add] Manager now automatically tries to pull missing images (last version) when not found, if **DOCKER_REPOSITORY** env var is set to a certain Docker repository; note that repository authentication currently not supported
62 - [feature-add] log-rotation application; does not include supervisor redirected paths, not stderr; log is hard-coded at ~5000 lines per file
64 - [feature-add] host-mapping is now available when running NF is running in standalone mode via the **NTS_NF_MOUNT_POINT_ADDRESSING_METHOD** variable
69 - [fix] VES commmon header made uniform across all VES-related messages
74 - [change] **Default password of the NETCONF Server was changed to "netconf!", to be complant with O-RAN requirements**
76 - [feature-add] NACM (NETCONF Access Control Module) default configuration is now according to O-RAN WG4 requirements instead of disabled, like before
78 - [change] Do not expose sysrepo internal YANG models in the yang-schema-list
80 - [change] Provide both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (if available) in pnfRegistration message
82 - [change] Change ietf-system default configuration and web-ui URL (now points to ConfigApp in SDN-R)
84 - [fix] Correctly construct URL for SDN Controller and VES Collector when they are addressed via IPv6
89 - [fixed] fixed issues where ODL could not parse the correct versions for yang files
94 - [fixed] bug that occured when trying to start a wrong instance (bad docker-repository or docker-tag)
95 - [fixed] when populating the fault-delay-list, if the sum of all the faults was 0, the network funciton kept on generating faults and crashed
100 - [feature-add] added web-cut-through feature
101 - [fixed] mount-point-addressing-method was mistakenly changing after starting
109 * IPv6 for the simulated devices
110 * NETCONF CallHome for the simulated devices
111 * Manual notification generation
112 * Custom naming of the simulated devices
116 * `ssh-connections` and `tls-connections` leafs are now removed from the simulator-config
117 * `fault-notification-delay-period` has now the attribute `ordered-by user`

125 The following docker containers are the resulting artefacts of the sim-o1-project:
127 * **o-ran-sc/ntsim-manager** - this image contains the NTS Manager, which handles the simulation environment;
129 * **o-ran-sc/ntsim-o-ran-fh** - this image contains a simulated device which exposes a management interface via NETCONF/YANG, implementing the O1 FH interface specifications;
131 * **o-ran-sc/ntsim-x-ran** - this image contains a simulated device which exposes a management interface via NETCONF/YANG, implementing the X-RAN Management interface.
133 * **o-ran-sc/ntsim-o-ran-ru-fh** - this image contains a simulated device which exposes a management interface via NETCONF/YANG, implementing the O-RU FH YANG models, as per the November 2020 train;
135 * **o-ran-sc/ntsim-o-ran-du** - this image contains a simulated device which exposes a management interface via NETCONF/YANG, implementing the O-DU YANG models;
