State transition table
by Tomohiro Kudoh 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hi all, Here is a state transition table of the NSA state machine, as per discussion at the SLC OGF meeting. - This table defines more detailed behavior of the SM (compared with the diagram). - This table shows unexpected (presumably erroneous) cases in purple color, and defines behavior on such cases.

GEANT topology for demo
by Radek Krzywania 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hi all, In the attachment there is a first draft of the GENAT topology. There will be small changes to that, i.e. to the URIs. Some of the ports are under implementation and the final numbering is missing (x/y instead). For some external ports I guess we need to agree on URIs: - we have connection to Internet2 - will that be also shown on Internet2 topology? If so, what would be the URI at Internet2 site? - What would be an URI at port going to GN from Netherlight for this demo? Best regards Radek ________________________________________________________________________ Radoslaw Krzywania Network Research and Development Poznan Supercomputing and radek.krzywania(a)man.poznan.pl Networking Center +48 61 850 25 26 http://www.man.poznan.pl ________________________________________________________________________

Fwd: Describing Topologies

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 http://auto-gole.appspot.com/ - -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Describing Topologies Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2011 18:15:25 +0200 From: Jeroen van der Ham <vdham(a)uva.nl> To: automatedgole-pilot(a)internet2.edu <automatedgole-pilot(a)internet2.edu> Hello, Attached is a document describing how to create topology descriptions as Gerben presented last week. The description shows how to create these in Notation3 format, which is a very user-friendly format for writing out RDF. Numerous validators and converters to RDF/XML exist, for example: http://www.rdfabout.com/demo/validator/ You can also use the graphical editor at http://auto-gole.appspot.com/ Unfortunately I'm going to miss all the fun, because I'll be away on holiday. Some of my colleagues will monitor this list should you have any questions about the descriptions. Please share the finished descriptions also on this list so that we can all see who finished them, and that I can later use them. As a first incentive, I'm attaching the UvALight description, and I'm sure that Hans will forward the Netherlight description soon enough also. Jeroen. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk4xaU4ACgkQ2sJ8QXNckQHNyACfQgomo1cVppxcUvBTl9kT3wGp NRMAniuhn/CSPMRAdyc151YO6ponhjOa =Xwdj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

NetherLight N3 topology for GLIF Rio demo
by Hans Trompert 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hi, Attached is the NetherLight A-GOLE topology in N3 format. Hadn't time to use a validator but I think it is more or less correct :) I just used vi to create the N3 description. The SNE editor is nice, but it is just a temporary solution. In the (near) future we will have our NRM generate this information automatically. The only thing missing in the description are the correct connectedTo URI's to the other domains (except for the UvA one's). But this in only a bootstrap problem. Once everybody has a correct topology description of his own domain, for new ports this kind of information is exchanged with other information like path positions, VLAN information, time slots, etc., during the setup of a new interconnection between domains.

TransactionId
by John MacAuley 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Peoples, This weekend we had a lively discussion on transactionId. In the end it was agreed that we would continue to support this identifier, however it will be renamed. I have currently defined it as a uuid for uniqueness as is done in many implementations using a transactionId. Now Inder asked if we could make it a sequence I'd to help with processing on the RA side. Comments? Sent from my iPhone

NSI protocol failed messages
by John MacAuley 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Peoples, There was a request at OGF 32 this weekend to remove the specific operation failed messages (reservationFailed, provisionFailed, etc.) and replace them with a common Failed message. This would also involve moving the existing transactionId into the main XSD message schema so that the failed could be coordinated with the original request. After further consideration I think that we would be able to do this and reduce the number of types generated by compiling the WSDL. Does anyone see a reason to keep the individual failed messages given they are all identical and only the element name is changed? Thank you, John.
