The OPES proposed charter states the following:
2. A "service delivery" protocol for delivering the services or service
descriptions to be preformed by the OPES facility or/and its
cooperating servers.
What are the requirements to achieve this ?
- Discovery of an OPES box and its characteristics ( WEBI )
- Description of the OPES services
- Service delivery mechanism supporting multiple transports (1-1, 1-many)
- Rule base needs to be delivered to the OPES box. Is there a published
format or object APIs
for the rule base, or just standardize the delivery of the rule modules ?
- What else ?
Additionally http://draft-tomlinson-epsfw-00.txt shows the Administrative
Server.
I assume that the intend is to have an OPES box from company A communicates
w/ Administration Server from
company B. Are there any protocols, accounting requirements defined ?
Thanks
