+# NF Simulator
+
+Goal of this project is to simulate `Network Function`. 
+
+
+## Simulator components
+This simulator is consist of projects (components):
+- avcn-manager
+- netconf-server
+- pm-https-server
+- ves-client
+
+Each of these projects can be developed, build and run independently.
+Nonetheless, in order to achieve goal of this simulator, 
+these components needs to be connected and interact.
+
+### Components interaction flow
+*netconf-server -> Message Queue (Kafka) -> avcn-server -> ves-client -> ves*
+
+Above flow shows how components are connected with each other.
+The goal of that connected components is to propagate information
+about network element configuration change (netconf server) to ONAP (ves).
+
+More examples and use cases are shown in `sanitycheck` directory.
+
+For more details about each project see *README* files in projects directories.
+
+
+## Starting and Testing simulator
+
+To start whole system (simulator) locally docker compose is needed.
+Description on how to do that, with all needed docker-compose files,
+is located in `sanitycheck` directory.
+This directory contains also description of **test scenarios**.
+All that descriptions are located in *README* file.
+
+
+## Simulator CLI
+
+This simulator has also CLI that can be used to communicate with running components.
+Description on how to use this tool is located in `simulator-cli` directory.
