    8181Several methods take some URNs to identify what to operate on. These methods are defined as accepting a list of arbitrary strings we call URNs.
    82 This API defines two kinds of URNs that may be supplied here, slice URNs and sliver URNs (see [wiki:GeniApiIdentifiers the GENI identifiers page], and [AaronHelsinger/GAPI_AM_API_DRAFT#Adopted:ChangeSetK:Standardizecertificatesandcredentials Change Set K]). Some aggregates may understand other URNs, but these are not defined or required here. Aggregates that accept only URNs defined by this API will return an error when given URNs not in one of those forms.

Aggregates that accept only URNs defined by this API will return an error when given URNs not in one of those forms.
    8383This API requires that aggregates accept either a single slice URN, or 1+ sliver URNs that all belong to the same slice. Aggregates are not required to accept both a slice URN and sliver URNs, 2+ slice URNs, or a set of sliver URNs that crosses multiple slices. Some aggregates may choose to accept other such combinations of URNs. Aggregates that accept only arguments defined by this API will return an error when given more than 1 slice URN, a combination of both slice and sliver URNs, or a set of sliver URNs that belong to more than 1 slice.
