[Nsi-wg] NSA implementation addresses

Hi NSI Developers-

We now have a modified topology that supports the NSI concepts much 
better thanks to John Mac and Jeroen vdH.   I am updating the topology 
files and will circulate them shortly.  So that everyone understands the 
model, and has an example or two.

We have now seven implementations that want to participate in the 
Plugfest.   In order to simplify the testing, we have created a static 
configuration of NSI networks and NSA assignments:   We have defined 
seven Networks interconnected at the data plane to form a simple ring.   
We have assigned one implementation to each Network to act as the NSA.

****--->*  What I need from each implementation team is the URL for 
their test NSA's SOAP endpoint. Here is John Mac's example for OpenDRAC:

<nsi:csProviderEndpointrdf:datatype="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#anyURI">https://dracproxy01.surfnet.nl:8443/nsi/ConnectionServiceProvider</nsi:csProviderEndpoint>


I will put these into the global Rio topology configuration so that the 
URL is associated with your assigned Network NSA.  Then other NSAs can 
find you.

You each will need to read the Global Rio Topology OWL file into your 
NSA so that your NSA knows what the rest of the world looks like.   By 
using this more static NSA <--> Network assignment, we don't need to 
reconfigure the NSAs as much to run the tests.   We will have to 
generalize the tests a bit, but I think this will be easier.

More detailed info will be circulated shortly.  But please forward this 
URL to me asap.  THANKS!
Jerry
