The Sentinel REM extension provides a RESTful HTTP provisioning API. It also provides many Configuration APIs for various Sentinel VoLTE application components.

Tip To use the Sentinel VoLTE Provisioning REST Web Interface and Machine API, you will need to configure a Rhino instance using the Rhino Element Manager (REM).
Tip The Sentinel SDK contains a Python script called sentinel-rest-example in the build/bin directory. It implements the examples discussed here and a few more.

The API also includes the ability to invalidate cache entries in the Sh Cache Microservice, as detailed in the Sh Cache Microservice REST API.

Primer on RESTful HTTP

RESTful HTTP is a pattern for use of the HTTP protocol.

RESTful APIs typically provide the following operations:

  • Create

  • Read

  • Update, and

  • Delete operations

These are referred to as "CRUD".

The CRUD operations are mapped to HTTP Methods, or "HTTP verbs".

CRUD HTTP Method/Verb URI Return code

Create

POST

/subscriberdata

201 (Created) containing a Location header with a link to /susbcriberdata/{impu}. 409 (Conflict) if the IMPU already exists.

Read

GET

/subscriberdata/{impu}

200 (OK) with the body containing the content. 404 (Not Found) if the IMPU is not found or invalid.

Update

PUT

/subscriberdata/{impu}

204 (OK) indicating that the document has been replaced. 404 (Not Found) if the IMPU is not found or invalid.

Delete

DELETE

/susbcriberdata/{impu}

204 (OK) indicating that the document has been removed. 404 (Not Found) if the IMPU is not found or invalid.

The Create (POST) operation URI differs from the other operations. This is because Create (POST) is creating a resource with the identity of the resource contained in the body of the POST. A success response to create contains a Location header providing the URI of the resource. Other operations specify the identity as part of the Request URI.

In other words, you can consider create to be saying to the manager of the filer "please create me a box, write the number 10 on the outside of the box, put these books in the box, and tell me where box 10 is filed". The success response says "a box with number 10 was created, it is filed at this location (10), and it contains your books".

Whereas the other operations are not addressing the filer, they are addressing the box itself. This means that the Request URI contains "10" in our example. So Update (PUT) replaces the "books in box number 10" identified by the URI.

Read (GET) returns the "books from box number 10", and Delete (DELETE) deletes box number 10 and it’s contained books.

Another subtly is that both Create (POST) and Update (PUT) contain the identifier in the body, you cannot update "box number 10" with a body that identifies "box number 11".

Accessing the Provisioning REST API

To access the Provisioning REST API:

1

Ensure the Sentinel REM extension is installed in REM.

2

Start REM.

3

Access the Sentinel Provisioning API at [http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api] (replace localhost with some other hostname if REM is not being run locally).
Tip Access is restricted to users configured through REM using HTTP BASIC authorization. If you’re using a web browser, it will prompt you to enter a username and password the first time you access any part of the API.

Listing and browsing resources

You can list and browse resources through the Sentinel Provisioning API.

Listing resources

You can find a listing of all available resources at the top-level URL for the API (for example, [http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api]).

The list can be in either:

  • HTML format (for viewing in a browser)

  • an APP Service Document (application/atomsvc+xml), that can be parsed by a scripted client.

Browsing resources

From the top-level API URL, you can browse into the available resources. Each resource in turn lists its own sub-resources. Some of the sub-resources require a rhinoInstanceId query parameter. This should exactly match the name of a Rhino instance configured in REM (such as rhinoInstanceId=Local). Most of the sub-resources also require a selectionKey query parameter in the form of platformOperator:networkOperator:sessionType:planId:subscriptionId - such as selectionKey=OpenCloud::::

Example 1:

http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata returns a sub-resource listing for HSS data:

<feature>
    <name>HSS Data</name>
    <resources>
        <link rel="provisioningfieldmappings" href="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata/provisioningfieldmappings" title="HSS Subscriber Data Provisioning Field Mappings Config"/>
        <link rel="subscriberdata" href="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata/subscriberdata" title="HSS Subscriber Data"/>
    </resources>
</feature>

  • The link entries contain the URLs for accessing the nested REST resources.

Specifying content type

By default, the API accepts and returns application/xml, but also supports application/json. To request content in JSON format, simple set the http Accept request header to application/json.

For example:

wget --header='Accept: application/json' --http-user=XXXXX --http-password=XXXXXX http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata

returns a JSON object representing the sub-resource listing for HSS data.

{
    "name":"HSS Data",
    "resources":[
        {
            "rel":"provisioningfieldmappings",
            "href":"http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata/provisioningfieldmappings",
            "title":"HSS Subscriber Data Provisioning Field Mappings Config"
        },{
            "rel":"subscriberdata",
            "href":"http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata/subscriberdata",
            "title":"HSS Subscriber Data"
        }
    ]
}

Provisioning MMTel subscriber data using the provisioning API

The HSS Data and Data Configuration REST API provides a RESTFul API allowing a user’s Supplementary Service data and IMS Operator Determined Barring data to be provisioned. The provisioned data is stored in two documents in the HSS, using Sh Transparent data.

The API defines Create, Read, Update and Delete (C,R,U,D) operations. It maps REST C,R,U,D operations into Sh Cache Microservice operations, which in turn turns them into Diameter Sh operations that manipulate XML documents stored in the HSS. These documents are the:

  • MMTel-Services document, according to section 7 of 3GPP TS 29.364 Rel 12,

  • IMS-ODB-Information document, according to section 10 of 3GPP TS 29.364 Rel 12

  • Metaswitch-TAS-Services document, custom

The XML schema for these documents is available, see Subscriber data document schemas.

Overview of the API

The API uses common RESTful HTTP practices. It is recommended to refer to the Primer on RESTful HTTP whilst reading this API.

Specific elements in the MMTel-Services document and IMS-ODB-Information documents (stored in the HSS, accessed via the Sh Cache Microservice) are mapped to "fields" in the returned document via this API. There is a default mapping, configured through the use of the sentinel-volte-mappings-config tool described in Populating XCAP server settings and MMTel service data.

The mappings added by this tool are documented:

A visual way to view the result of the mappings is to Load or view transparent data for an IMS public identity.

Users can modify the API server configuration in order to introduce additional XML schemas with their own Service Indication. The sentinel-volte-mappings-config tool uses a REST API to provide the default mappings/configuration. Note: in versions of Sentinel VoLTE prior to the 2.7.0.x series, only the MMTel-Services document was configured by default in the previously named volte-sentinel-mappings-config tool.

The subscriber’s own Data when passed to and from the API is framed according to the form described in HssSubscriberData.

The framing is either JSON or XML. When reading from the API (e.g a Read operation), the framing is selected by use of the Accept header. It is either:

  • Accept: application/json - for JSON framed data, or

  • Accept: application/xml - for XML framed data

When writing to the API (e.g. a Create or Update operation) the framing is indicated to the API by use of the Content-Type header. It is either:

  • Content-Type: application/json - for JSON framed data, or

  • Content-Type: application/xml - for XML framed data

The details of the Create, Read, Update and Delete operations are described in the /hssdata/subscriberdata section.

The operations take several parameters:

  • The imsUserIdentity parameter is the IMS public identity that will be read during SIP Session processing, or accessed via the Ut interface.

  • The rhinoInstanceId parameter is the name/instance of the Rhino cluster that is being connected to (as defined in REM). This cluster stores settings that are used by the Provisioning API.

  • The selectionKey parameter - typically defines the Platform Operator Name used for the install of the form $PLATFORM_OPERATOR_NAME$::::

About Update

The Update operation requires that a whole document is provided by the API client. It is not a "delta" operation, whereby only certain attributes or elements are identified for update - the entire document needs to be included. If a partial document is provided to the Update operation, it is treated by the Server as though any elements not provided to the Update operation are set to:

  • xsi:nil="true" (for XML), or

  • null (for JSON)

A single API Update operation can modify one or more documents in the HSS via the Sh Cache Microservice. The HSS document to update is controlled by the serviceIndication in the client provided document.

Create Examples

The Create API takes the user’s IMPU from the provided document. It is the only API call that does not include the user’s IMPU in the query URI. It returns a Location header containing the URI for further accessing the user’s data. This location is the URI for the other operations, such as Read, Update and Delete.

The create operation operates on one IMPU at a time.

Data in a file instead of inline

In the create examples, the curl utility is used. Data is provided inline in these examples, such that they can be copy/pasted to a command-line.

This has the side effect of making the command look more complex, as it is now a "long string" entered as a single command.

The curl utility allows the data to be used for an HTTP operation to be specified in a file, rather than provided inline. So rather than using --data 'data-goes-here' portion of the commands, it’s recommended to use --data-binary "@/path/to/filename". The reason to use --data-binary is because when curl handles data using --data it will strip newlines …​ yet newlines can make documents (more) humanly readable!

Creating a users Transparent Data

In this example:

  • the imsUserIdentity is sip:+6505550201@example.com - it is specified in the request body

  • the HTTP Request Method is POST

  • the user does not have Sh Transparent data

  • the rhinoInstanceId is Local

  • the selectionKey is Metaswitch::::

  • the requested framing format is JSON

  • the username is username

  • the password is password

  • the server is located on localhost running on port 8080

This example creates two documents in the HSS from a single HTTP request. These are MMTel-Services, and IMS-ODB-Information documents.

Note: When an XML element from the HSS is returned inside a "value" XML element, the API has to encode the HSS’s XML element as type xs:string. This means that elements such as the following occur.

<field>

Update of IMS ODB Information using JSON

In this example, a users IMS ODB Information is set to bar outgoing calls to international destinations, excluding the home country.

This example sets:

  • the Service Indication to "IMS-ODB-Information" - (serviceIndication in the document)

  • a value of "2" in the OutgoingBarring element in the OdbForImsOrientedServices document - an example of an XML document over the Sh interface is provided Bar all outgoing communications when international ex-hplmnc

  • all other portions of the document are also provided - in this case they are explicitly set to null.

  • the imsUserIdentity is sip:+6505550201@example.com - it is specified in the URI

  • the HTTP Request Method is PUT

  • the rhinoInstanceId is Local

  • the selectionKey is Metaswitch::::

  • the requested framing format is JSON

  • the username is username

  • the password is password

  • the server is located on localhost running on port 8080

Update of CDIV rules using JSON

In this example, a users CDIV rules are set to the Unconditional rule, to always retarget to a specific number. The users CDIV Active flag is set to true so that diversion can occur.

Note that CDIV Rules are able to be modified by an end user. Therefore a workflow implemented in a provisioning system is expected to:

  • Read the existing document using the Read operation, and parse into an in-memory form

  • modify this in-memory document add the specific rule (into the existing set of rules),

  • Update the document using the Update operation

A read for a user with no CDIV rules set will return a document. A trimmed version of that document is show below, including the two relevant fields:

  1. CDIV Active

  2. CDIV Rules

{"identity":"sip:+6505550201@example.com",
 "fieldGroups":[
     {"serviceIndication":"MMTEL-Services",
         "fields":[

 .. trimmed some output of Read  ..

             {"name":"CDIV Active:","value":"false"},

             {"name":"CDIV Rules:","value":"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n<cp:ruleset xmlns=\"http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap\" xmlns:ocp=\"urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy\" xmlns:cp=\"urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy\"/>\n"},

.. trimmed some output of Read  ..
         ]
     },
 .. trimmed some output of Read ..
 ]
}

The existing value of CDIV Active is "false". In order for CDIV to divert the call, the new value shall be "true".

The existing value of CDIV Rules - after removal of JSON escaping is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<cp:ruleset xmlns="http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap" xmlns:ocp="urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy" xmlns:cp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy"/>

The desired value for this element according to the MMTel Services document schema is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<cp:ruleset xmlns="http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap" xmlns:ocp="urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy" xmlns:cp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy">
    <cp:rule id="unconditional">
        <cp:conditions>
        </cp:conditions>
        <cp:actions>
            <forward-to>
                <target>sip:+6505550202@example.com</target>

            </forward-to>
        </cp:actions>
    </cp:rule>
</cp:ruleset>

The JSON string form of the XML document above (preserving whitespace) is:

"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n<cp:ruleset xmlns=\"http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap\" xmlns:ocp=\"urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy\" xmlns:cp=\"urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy\">\n    <cp:rule id=\"unconditional\">\n        <cp:conditions>\n        </cp:conditions>\n        <cp:actions>\n            <forward-to>\n                <target>sip:6505550202@example.com</target>\n                <notify-caller>true</notify-caller>\n            </forward-to>\n        </cp:actions>\n    </cp:rule>\n</cp:ruleset>\n"

Delete Examples

The delete operation will remove any Sh Transparent User Data document that the API is configured for, By default this means that both the IMS-ODB-Information and MMTel-Services documents are deleted.

Deleting a subscriber that has Sh Transparent Data

In this example:

  • the imsUserIdentity is sip:+6505550201@example.com - it is specified in the URI

  • the HTTP Request Method is DELETE

  • the rhinoInstanceId is Local

  • the selectionKey is Metaswitch::::

  • the requested framing format is JSON

  • the username is username

  • the password is password

  • the server is located on localhost running on port 8080

Request

 
curl -H 'Accept: application/json' \
     -i \
     -X DELETE \
     -u "username:password"

Configuring using simple tools and scripts

Higher-level clients can be used to configure subscriber data using the REST API from Java or other application code, but you really just need to be able to make HTTP requests. See this example:

Turning on HomeZone for a subscriber using Ruby (JSON)

Note: this specific example is not relevant to the Sentinel VoLTE application as the Home Zone feature is not part of Sentinel VoLTE. This example is intended to show how Ruby can be used with the configuration API.

require 'rubygems'
require 'json'
require 'net/http'

Net::HTTP.start('localhost', '8080') {|http|
  req = Net::HTTP::Get.new('/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata/subscriberdata/records/34600000003?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::', {'Accept' => 'application/json'})
  req.basic_auth 'username', 'password'
  response = http.request(req)
  subscriber = JSON.parse(response.body)
  subscriber['subscriberData'].each {|item|
    if item['name'] == 'HomeZoneEnabled'
      item['valueBoolean'] = true;
    end
  }

  req = Net::HTTP::Put.new('/rem/sentinel/api/hssdata/subscriberdata/records/34600000003?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::', {'Content-Type' => 'application/json'})
  req.basic_auth 'username', 'password'
  response = http.request(req, JSON.generate(subscriber))

Sh Cache Microservice REST API

The Sentinel REM extension provides a RESTful API for invalidating caches and cache entries managed by the Sh Cache Microservice.

It is based on the Sh Cache Microservice’s Invalidation Management API, as detailed in the Sh Cache Microservice documentation.

Tip The basic mechanism for accessing this REST API is the same as for the rest of the Sentinel VoLTE Provisioning REST API.

This page covers

Dropping caches and invalidating cache entries

The Sh Cache Microservice section of the api, within the /rem/sentinel/api/shcache path, is chiefly concerned with dropping whole caches, and invalidating individual cache entries. Both of these are achieved by issuing a DELETE request for the appropriate URL.

For example, DELETE with path /rem/sentinel/api/shcache would drop all caches.

As another example, invalidating a single entry within a cache is also achieved using a DELETE request, but with URL matrix parameters to specify which cache entry should be deleted. E.g.:

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/cs-user-state
  ;userIdentity=0211111111;userIdentityType=msisdn;requestedNodes=1.

Note that these DELETE operations take effect across the cluster as a whole.

Accessing cache counts and cache entry counts

For each DELETE operation which operates on either whole caches, or individual cache entries, there is an analogous GET operation which can be used to inspect a count related to those caches or cache entries.

Note that these operations only query cache information from the single node which services the request, rather than from the cluster as a whole. This is in contrast to the DELETE requests which operate on the cluster as a whole. These GET requests therefore are useful more for integration testing, and are not appropriate for querying the definitive state of the caches across the whole cluster.

Notes on URL format

Notes on the format of the URL schemes below:

  • {someValue} indicates a position where some value should be supplied.

  • A […​] indicates an optional part of the URL. E.g.: [;privateIdentity={privateIdentity}].

  • An alternative is indicated as (A|B), where either A or B should be specified.

  • The available values for many of the URL parameters are described in available arguments for individual parameters.

Specifying the Rhino Instance Id

For all requests, the ?rhinoInstanceId={rhinoInstanceId} URL query parameter must be specified after the URL path, and after any URL matrix parameters.

An example of a full URL for a DELETE request:

http://thehostname/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/repository-data
  ;serviceIndication=MMTEL-Services
  ;userIdentity=sip:alice@home1.opencloud.co.nz?rhinoInstanceId=Local

After the path (ending with repository-data), we see the URL matrix parameters (each of the form ;key=value), followed by the URL query parameter ?rhinoInstanceId=Local at the end.

The value of the rhinoInstanceId parameter is the ID of the Rhino instance to connect to. This should exactly match the name of a Rhino instance configured in the Rhino Element Manager (REM), such as ?rhinoInstanceId=Local.

For the sake of brevity, the rest of this document assumes that the query parameter ?rhinoInstanceId={rhinoInstanceId} is appended to all DELETE and GET requests related to the this API, and it is not explicitly included in the URLs below.

URLs for querying or dropping whole caches

For these URLs:

  • A GET request returns the number of caches present on the node which services the request.

  • A DELETE request drops the caches across all nodes in the cluster.

A successful GET request will return a 200 OK response, containing a response body such as the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<cacheInfo><cacheCount>1</cacheCount></cacheInfo>

A successful DELETE request will return a 204 No Content response, containing no response body.

URL for all caches

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache

Acts on all Sh caches.

URL for all caches within a given data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/{dataReference}

Acts on all Sh caches related to the given data reference.

For queries where the dataReference is repository-data, the query can be optionally narrowed by serviceIndication:

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/repository-data[;serviceIndication={serviceIndication}]

URLs for querying or dropping cache entries

For these URLs:

  • A GET request returns the number of cache entries on the node which services the request.

  • A DELETE request invalidates the cache entries across all nodes in the cluster.

A successful GET request will return a 200 OK response, containing a response body such as the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<cacheInfo><entryCount>1</entryCount></cacheInfo>

A successful DELETE request will return a 204 No Content response, containing no response body.

URL for entries within a given data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/{dataReference}
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity};userIdentityType=impu
        [;privateIdentity={privateIdentity}]

Acts on cache entries within the given data reference, as narrowed by the given parameters.

Rules:

  • dataReference must not be repository-data. For repository-data specific queries, see the URL query format which is specific to repository-data.

  • The privateIdentity parameter may only be included when using one of the following data references: msisdn, sms-registration-info, ue-reachability-for-ip, tads-information, stn-sr, ue-srvcc-capability, extended-priority, csrn, reference-location-information.

URL for entries within the RepositoryData data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/repository-data
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity}
        [;serviceIndication={serviceIndication}]

Acts on cache entries within the RepositoryData data reference, optionally narrowed by service indication.

Rules:

  • The userIdentity is treated as an IMPU. The userIdentityType parameter does not need to be provided in the URL, but if provided it must be set to impu.

URL for entries within the DSAI data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/dsai
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity};userIdentityType={userIdentityType}
        ;applicationServerName={applicationServerName};dsaiTags={dsaiTags}

Acts on cache entries within the DSAI data reference, narrowed by the given parameters.

URL for entries within the IMSPublicIdentity data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/ims-public-identity
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity};userIdentityType={userIdentityType}
        [;identitySets={identitySets}]

Acts on cache entries within the IMSPublicIdentity data reference, narrowed by the given parameters.

URL for entries within the InitialFilterCriteria data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/initial-filter-criteria
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity};userIdentityType={userIdentityType}
        ;applicationServerName={applicationServerName}

Acts on cache entries within the InitialFilterCriteria data reference, narrowed by the given parameters.

URL for entries within the LocationInformation data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/(cs-location-information\|ps-location-information)
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity};userIdentityType={userIdentityType}
        [;privateIdentity={privateIdentity}]
        ;currentLocation={currentLocation}
        [;servingNodeIndication={servingNodeIndication}]
        [;requestedNodes={requestedNodes}]
        [;localTimeZoneIndication={localTimeZoneIndication}]

Acts on cache entries within the LocationInformation data reference within either the CS or PS domain, narrowed by the given parameters.

Rules:

  • userIdentityType may specify either impu or msisdn.

URL for entries within the UserState data reference

/rem/sentinel/api/shcache/(cs-user-state\|ps-user-state)
        ;userIdentity={userIdentity};userIdentityType={userIdentityType}
        [;privateIdentity={privateIdentity}]
        [;requestedNodes={requestedNodes}]

Acts on cache entries within the UserState data reference within either the CS or PS domain, narrowed by the given parameters.

Rules:

  • userIdentityType may specify either impu or msisdn.

Available arguments for individual parameters

Note: the repository-data data reference has its own specific URLs, as shown above.

  • charging-information

  • cs-location-information

  • csrn

  • cs-user-state

  • dsai

  • extended-priority

  • ims-public-identity

  • ims-user-state (Recognized, but not yet supported in any of the above methods)

  • initial-filter-criteria

  • ip-address-secure-binding-information

  • msisdn

  • psi-activation

When querying the HSS for MSISDN data, VoLTE by default sets the identity type to IMPU. If the FetchCMSISDNFeatureConfigProfileTable profile has UDRIncludedIdentities set to IMPU_IMPI then the IMPI is also included in the query. When using the Sh Cache Rest API to act on the MSISDN caches, set the identity type to IMPU and include both the IMPU and IMPI or just the IMPU, depending on the FetchCMSISDNFeatureConfigProfileTable configuration.

Available values for the servingNodeIndication parameter:

  • only-serving-nodes-required

Available values for the localTimeZoneIndication parameter:

  • local-time-zone-with-location-info-requested

  • only-local-time-zone-requested

Available values for the identitySets parameter:

  • alias-identities

  • all-identities

  • implicit-identities

  • registered-identities

Available values for the currentLocation parameter:

  • do-not-need-initiate-active-location-retrieval

  • initiate-active-location-retrieval

Available values for the serviceIndication parameter:

While there are many potential values for the serviceIndication parameter, the well known values within Sentinel VoLTE include:

  • IMS-ODB-Information

  • MMTEL-Services

  • Metaswitch-TAS-Services

  • opencloud-3rd-party-registrar
