15 The A1 Simulator terminates the A1 interface and provides a way to test Non-RT RIC services without the need to deploy Near |nbh| RT |nbsp| RICs.
17 Apart from providing the A1 API, the simulator also provides an administrative API to manage policy types and manipulate
18 the simulator, see ":ref:`simulator-api`".
20 The A1 Simulator supports running multiple simulations using different versions of the A1 Application protocol and A1 Policy behaviors.
