FW: orientation
by Guy Roberts 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

For discussion today... From: Guy Roberts Sent: 23 January 2013 17:42 To: Henrik Thostrup Jensen (htj(a)nordu.net) Cc: nsi-wg(a)ogf.org Subject: orientation Henrik, Looking up my documentation on orientation I see that I came up with this definition: Orientation · Orientation attribute is used to assign a direction to a bidirectional STP to remove ambiguity when performing path computation. Orientation type is ingress or egress. Ingress/Egress is relative to the Network. See the attached document for discussion, but I think that we can drop the orientation attribute as there are other ways of solving the problem.

SOAP Version
by MacAuley, John (John) 29 Jan '13

29 Jan '13

Peoples, I had an action item to define which version of SOAP we are using in the standard. At the moment I believe all implementations are utilizing SOAP 1.1 by default. I say this because I have captured a few SOAP messages in the past and they all contain the following SOAP URL: <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> By definition the following name spaces apply to the specific SOAP versions: SOAP 1.1 : http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/ SOAP 1.2 : http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope I have used WSDL 1.1 to specify the protocol which typically lines up with SOAP 1.1. I believe most people's implementation will default to SOAP 1.1 unless specifically told to use SOAP 1.2. I therefore recommend we specifically declare that NSI CSv2 used the SOAP 1.1 binding. John References W3C - From SOAP/1.1 to SOAP Version 1.2 in 9 points. http://www.w3.org/2003/06/soap11-soap12.html

Query renaming
by John MacAuley 28 Jan '13

28 Jan '13

Peoples, THe agreement out of our last meeting was to introduce the querySynch() command to support a synchronous (blocking) summary query command. This operation would not support the detailed query behaviours. To maintain consistency in operation naming, I would like to break the current asynchronous query operation into two separate commands: query() that would provide the asynchronous summary query for the schedule, and queryDetails() that would provide the recursive tree view of the schedule. query() would have the same parameters and confirmation result type as querySynch(). If people support this change, then I will go ahead and make it at the same time I add the querySynch() operation. I am open for naming changes as well. If someone thinks querySummary() and querySummarySynch() are better operation names. Thank you, John

Topology Syntax document
by Jeroen van der Ham 25 Jan '13

25 Jan '13

Hi all, I've prepared a document defining the NSI topology syntax extensions on NML. This basically codifies the syntax that we have been using in the Automated GOLE demo since SC. Feedback (and approval) is more than welcome! Jeroen.

Henrik, Looking up my documentation on orientation I see that I came up with this definition: Orientation · Orientation attribute is used to assign a direction to a bidirectional STP to remove ambiguity when performing path computation. Orientation type is ingress or egress. Ingress/Egress is relative to the Network. See the attached document for discussion, but I think that we can drop the orientation attribute as there are other ways of solving the problem.
