+Through the ONAP Portal's Policy Portal, we can find the configuration and operation policies that are currently
enabled for the vFirewall use case:
- The configuration policy sets the thresholds for generating an onset event from DCAE to the Policy engine. Currently, the high-water mark is set to 700 packets while the low-water mark is set to 300 packets. The measurement interval is set to 10 seconds.
- When a threshold is crossed (i.e. the number of received packets is below 300 packets or above 700 packets per 10 seconds), the Policy engine executes the operational policy to request APPC to adjust the traffic volume to 500 packets per 10 seconds.
-- APPC sends a request to the packet generator to adjust the traffic volume.
