Description

Per Tom Lehman's email, can you modify IDs for nodes, links, interfaces, and ports to match the conventions, and better support tools for interoperability?

b) The current format of a node, interface, and link component is:

node component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+geni-orca.renci.org+node+bbnNet.rdf#bbnNet/Domain/vlan" 
interface component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+geni-orca.renci.org+interface+bbnNet.rdf#BbnNet/IBM/G8052/TenGigabitEthernet/1/20/ethernet
link component_id=
    <interface_ref component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+geni-orca.renci.org+interface+bbnNet.rdf#BbnNet/IBM/G8052/TenGigabitEthernet/1/20/ethernet"/>
    <interface_ref component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+ion.internet2.edu+interface+rtr.newy:ae0"/>

The following adjustment would sync up with ProtoGENI practice better, and make it easier to correlate with stitching extension:

the basic rule is to construct the interface component_id by taking the node component_id portion after the "node+", and adding  ":anything-desired".  So a ":" demarc between the node and interface portions.  

Here is an example:

node component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+geni-orca.renci.org+node+bbnNet.rdf#bbnNet/Domain/vlan" 
interface component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+geni-orca.renci.org+interface+bbnNet.rdf#bbnNet/Domain/vlan:IBM/G8052/TenGigabitEthernet/1/20/ethernet
link component_id=
    <interface_ref component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+geni-orca.renci.org+interface+bbnNet.rdf#bbnNet/Domain/vlan:IBM/G8052/TenGigabitEthernet/1/20/ethernet"/>
    <interface_ref component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+ion.internet2.edu+interface+rtr.newy:ae0"/>

Would it be possible to use this format for all node, interface, and link component formations?

This should be an easy fix.

See related comments on ticket #44.

Try to make link component_id reference what you are linking TO. Current IDs seems to be identical to the interface IDs (except for changing 'interface' to 'link').

Here is a sample link element showing how you could construct a link component_id such that it clearly indicates what is being connected:

<link component_name="procurve-pgeni-losa//eth5//ion" component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+emulab.net+link+procurve-pgeni-losa:3.31-ion.internet2.edu+interface+rtr.wash:ge-7/1/3">
     <component_manager name="urn:publicid:IDN+emulab.net+authority+cm"/>
     <interface_ref component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+ion.internet2.edu+interface+rtr.wash:ge-7/1/3"/>
     <interface_ref component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+emulab.net+interface+procurve-pgeni-losa:3.31"/>
</link>
