# Configuring the simulator
An env variable, A1\_VERSION need to be passed to the container at start to select the desired interface version. The variable shall be set to one of the version-ids shown in the table in the first section. For example A1\_VERSIION=STD\_1.1.3.
+
An env variable, REMOTE_HOSTS_LOGGING, can be set (any value is ok) and the the counter remote\_hosts will log the host names of all remote hosts that has accessed the A1 URIs. If host names cannot be resolved, the ip address of the remote host is logged instead. This logging is default off so must be configured to be enabled. If not configured, the counter remote\_hosts will return a fixed text indicating that host name logging is not enabled. Use this feature with caution, remote host lookup may take time in certain environments.
+
+And optional env variable, DUPLICATE_CHECK, can be set to '1' to turn on duplicate check of policy json. A duplicate policy is when the policy json is exactly same as for a different policy id of the same type. This function is default set off if the variable is not set at all or set to '0'.
+
The simulator can also run using the https protocol. The enable https, a valid certificate and key need to provided. There is self-signed certificate available in the certificate dir and that dir shall be mounted to the container to make it available

+STD_2.0.0 version is now including an external server that is a Python server building RESTful API. The external server supports HTTP/HTTPS protocols.
+The description of the start parameters are explained below:
+ext-srv: Runs external server that supports HTTP protocol only.

+publish-resp: The flag controls the dispatcher module to decide auto responding to each requests for test purposes only.
+ignore-publish: If the A1 sim is being started using ignore flag, then the dispatcher module will look for a respone message published by south-bound module.
