I fully agree with this, John. It is important we avoid mixing concepts in both 
domains.

Be goode,

Section 6.2 says:

   o  When multiple instantiations of one single NSF appear as one
      single entity to the Security Controller, the policy provisioning
      has to be sent to the NSF Manager, which in turn disseminates the
      polices to the corresponding instantiations of the NSF, as shown
      in Figure 2 below.

I have no idea what an "NSF Manager" is. It is not defined in the
Terminology draft. The closest term in the terminology draft is
"I2NSF Management System".

However, for some reason, this reminds me of the VNFM in ETSI NFV.
If that is true, then I2NSF Management System is NOT the same thing.

I think that "NSF Manager" could be an EMS, as well as other types of
management engines. It is NOT the "I2NSF Management system".
However, I don't know what to call it, so I made the following
temporary hack:

   o  When multiple instantiations of one single NSF appear as one
      single entity to the Security Controller, the Security Controller
      may need to either get assistance from other entities in the
      I2NSF Management System, and/or delegate the provisioning of the
      multiple instantiations of the (single) NSF to other entities in
      the I2NSF Management System. This is shown in Figure 2 below.
