Abstract:
This Network Service Interface (NSI) document describes the Network Service Agent (NSA) Description Document that provides syntax for describing metadata for NSAs within the Network Services Framework (NSF) in support of NSA self-description. When used in conjunction with the protocol known as the Document Distribution Service, a mechanism is provided to discover peer NSAs, and their associated interface versions, features, control plane connectivity, and managed networks. Information conveyed in this document allows an NSA to perform basic protocol bootstrapping with minimal configuration by exposing an NSA’s identity, enabling version negotiation, and communicating protocol capabilities supported by that NSA.
