[Nsi-wg] Notifications

[John MacAuley]

Hello Allan,

In the end I realized that the notificationId only need be unique in the context of a conectionId, since we are retrieving using the connectionId for additional context.

The DataPlaneStateChange notification was left out of the queryNotification since the current state can be determined by querying the state machine.  At least, this was my justification for leaving them out.  Do you see a use case that would require these notifications to be included?  It definitely would make the solution complete around notifications.

We expected it to contain DataPlaneStateChanges as well, because it is a notification (it extends NotificationBaseType). I understand that the data plan state can be queried with a querySummary but the history of provision/release can not. I would suggest to let queryNotification also return the data plane state change notifications.

I think this makes it easier to follow the notifications because there should be almost no gaps between the notification ids. If the query contains the data plane state change notifications no gaps at all.
