[Nsi-wg] Endpoint update for northernlight

Hi everyone (especially to the topology maintainer)

Northernlight is now running TLS, and only TLS. Meaning no regular http 
requests will be accepted. Right now it should not perform any certificate 
verification, but that will come later.

The endpoint for the northernlight is now running on port 9443, meaning 
that this is the URL for the nsa endpoint:

http://orval.grid.aau.dk:9443/NSI/services/ConnectionService

I realize this will break things. Both the TLS only, and the endpoint 
change (though that is just an topology update), but I think this is an 
important thing to push for. Of course Northernlight is an edge-node with 
no transits in the current topology to impact is minimal, but I hope to 
upgrade Starlight (which has a rather central place in the topology) 
sometime in January, so if you haven't started on TLS support, now is the 
chance :-).

Have a nice christmas/holiday/work during the latter half of December.


     Best regards, Henrik
