Yes, that's exactly how that would work. In that case the urn:uuid:66314cd0-c5f2-11e1-9b21-0800200c9a66 would point to a PortGroup (STPGroup) and vlan=1791 identifies a single element of that group.

It is possible for the NSI to restrict the identifier form to the "urn:ogf:network:example.com:2012:stp:exampleport" form. That would have to become part of the standard then though.
