This document describes the Namespace Identifier (NID) 'etsi' for
Uniform Resource Names (URNs) used to identify resources published by
European Telecommuncations Standards Instititue (http://etsi.org). ETSI
specifies and manages resources that utilize this URN identification
model. Management activities for these and other resources types are
handled by the manager of the ETSI Assigned Names and Numbers (EANN)
registry.
ETSI is a nonprofit international industry standards organization,
that produces globally acceptable standards for Information &
Communication Technologies including fixed, mobile, radio, broadcast,
internet, aeornautical and other areas.
As part of these specifications efforts, there is a need to identify
identifiers in a managed namespace that are unique and persistent. To
ensure that this namespace's uniqueness is absolute, a registration of a
specific Unified Resource Name (URN) Uniform
Resource Names (URNs) Namespace Identifier (NID) for use by ETSI
is being specified in this document, in full conformance with the NID
registration process specified in the document.

Declaration of syntactic structure:
The syntax of namespace specific strings for the 'etsi' namespace
is <NSS> in Uniform Resource Names
(URNs).
Relevant ancillary documentation:
ETSI publishes information regarding the registered resources in
the ETSI URN Namespace (EUN) registry
(https://portal.etsi.org/PNNS/GenericAllocation/ETSIURNNamespace.aspx).
Identifier uniqueness considerations:
ETSI will manage resource classes using the "etsi" NID and will
be the authority for managing resources and associated subsequent
strings. ETSI is expected to guarantee the uniqueness of the strings
themselves, or it may permit secondary responsibility for certain
defined resources.
ETSI could allow for use of experimental type values for testing
purposes only. Note that using experimental types may create
collision as multiple users may use the same values for different
resources and specific strings.
Identifier persistence considerations:
ETSI will update the ETSI Assigned Names and Numbers (EANN)
registry to document the registered resources that will use the
"etsi" NID.
Process of identifier assignment:
Assignment of a URN from the ETSI namespace will be documented as
part of the ETSI Assigned Names and Numbers (EANN) registry.
Process of identifier resolution:
The namespace is not listed with an Resolution Discovery System
(RDS). Therefore this process is not relevant.
Rules for Lexical Equivalence:
The entire URN is case-insensitive.
Conformance with URN Syntax:
No special considerations
Validation mechanism:
None specified. URN assignment will be handled by procedures
implemented in support of ETSI activities.
Scope:
Global
The following are examples of URNs that ETSI is looking to
assign:
urn:etsi:yang:etsi-services
urn:etsi:yang:etsi-interfaces
There are no additional security considerations other than those
normally associated with the use and resolution of URNs in general,
which are described in Function Requirements for
URN, Uniform Resource Names (URNs)
.
This document adds a new entry ("etsi") in the urn-namespace
registry. This is the defining document. When published, the entry can
be found in the "Uniform Resource Names (URN) Namespaces" registry
available from the IANA site (http://www.iana.org) and any associated
mirrors.
