Connect

The 'Connect' ux-application shows up-to-date infomation about the connection status from ONAP-CCSDK to netconf-servers. 

nodeId vs mountpointId vs deviceName vs pnfId vs network-element-name vs ip-address

Several information and data models describing the same "thing" but focus on different views or aspects. Identifiers of the such "thing" may have different names but its value s the same.

The term "nodeId" is used by OpenDaylight to identify a node of a topology. In transport telecommunication networks the node often, a device or network-element. Therefore, the value of nodeId, device-name or network-element-name must be the same. The ONAP project "Active and Available Inventory (AAI)" defines "physical network functions (PNF)" - The value of the pnfId should be also the same as nodeId. 

A "Mountpoint" in OpenDaylight is describes a NetConf-Server and it connectivity from OpenDaylight point of view. If a network-element supports NetConf and runs a NetConf-Server, then the Mountpoint has the information about the NetworkElement-Management-IP-Address (AAI:PNF/oam-ip-address) and its name (nodeId).
