Joe,
Besides having the same comment as Jeff, here is one more and think some
additional clarification is needed
Actor Identifier: This is an opaque identifier that may be known to
the Client from a northbound controlling application. This is
used to trace the northbound actor driving the actions of the
Client. The Client may not provide this identifier to the Agent
if there is no external actor driving the Client. However, this
field MUST be logged. If the Client does not provide an actor ID,
then the Agent MUST log an empty field.
I can see that Actor ID can be useful to report back to Client operator about
rouge Actor. WRT logging Actor ID, when the Actor ID is not provided by Client,
instead of logging an empty field, I would suggest to log UNKNOWN or NOT FOUND
or NOT PROVIDED, as it is easier to search for a keyword then just empty field.
