+Verify the APEXOnapPf Installation
+----------------------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ When APEX is installed and all settings are realized, the
+ installation can be verified.
+
+Verify Installation - run APEXOnapPf
+####################################
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ A simple verification of an APEX installation can be done by
+ simply starting the APEXOnapPf without any configuration. On
+ Unix (or Cygwin) start the engine using
+ ``$APEX_HOME/bin/apexOnapPf.sh``. On Windows start the engine
+ using ``%APEX_HOME%\bin\apexOnapPf.bat``. The engine will fail
+ to fully start. However, if the output looks similar to the
+ following line, the APEX installation is realized.
+
+ .. container:: listingblock

+
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ To fully verify the installation, run the ApexOnapPf by providing the configuration files.
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ OnapPfConfig.json is the file which contains the initial configuration to startup the ApexStarter service. The dmaap topics to be used for sending or receiving messages is specified in the topic.properties file. Provide these two files as arguments while running the ApexOnapPf.

+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The ApexOnapPf service is now running, sending heartbeat messages to dmaap (which will be received by PAP) and listening for messages from PAP on the dmaap topic specified. Based on instructions from PAP, the ApexOnapPf will deploy or undeploy policies on the ApexEngine.
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Terminate APEX by simply using ``CTRL+C`` in the console.
+
+Running APEXOnapPf in Docker
+----------------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Running APEX from the ONAP docker repository only requires 2
+ commands:
+
+ .. container:: olist arabic
+
+ 1. Log into the ONAP docker repo
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ ::
+
+ docker login -u docker -p docker nexus3.onap.org:10003
+
+
+ 2. Run the APEX docker image
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ ::
+
+ docker run -p 6969:6969 -p 23324:23324 -it --rm nexus3.onap.org:10001/onap/policy-apex-pdp:2.1-SNAPSHOT-latest /bin/bash -c "/opt/app/policy/apex-pdp/bin/apexOnapPf.sh -c /opt/app/policy/apex-pdp/etc/onappf/config/OnapPfConfig.json -p /opt/app/policy/apex-pdp/etc/onappf/config/topic.properties"
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ To run the ApexOnapPf, the startup script apexOnapPf.sh along with the required configuration files are specified. Also, the ports 6969 (healthcheck) and 23324 (deployment port for the ApexEngine) are exposed.
+

+APEXOnapPf Configuration Files Explained
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The ApexOnapPf is initialized using two files:
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - OnapPfConfig.json
+
+ - topic.properties
+
+Format of the configuration file (OnapPfConfig.json) explained
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The configuration file is a JSON file containing the initial values for configuring the rest server for healthcheck and the pdp itself. A sample can be found below:
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ .. code::
+
+ {
+ "name":"ApexStarterParameterGroup",
+ "restServerParameters": { (1)
