The following query endpoints and subscriptions will be supported in STF587, based on v1: (1) rab_info; (2) plmn_info; (3) cell_change; (4) rab_est; (5) rab_rel.
This section describes how MEC012 has been integrated with the MEC Sandbox.
v2 changes for these endpoints are minor and may be considered during implementation or when v2 is available on Forge.
*Remaining endpoints are either marked for STF587 Milestone D consideration (depending on time and effort) or deferred for future consideration beyond STF587. All RABs will have a consistent QCI value (e.g. non-GBR, QCI = 80 -- Low latency eMBB applications, TCP/UDP-based)*
