The question is which domain name should be included in the URN of an 
inter-domain link. In this case domain x or domain y. One could say that 
one of those two (that's fine and I remember a discussion about this 
problem in the OGF meeting). But we could also create two bidirectional 
links and one of them is just an an alias (the best name but I wasn't 
sure if I can use it as I'm not 100% sure of the definition of isAlias 
used in the NSI example).
