 wdiff shows: "VN Names" and "VN Aliases" swaps:


VN Alias:  A string name for a VN as used by administrators and
      customers to name a specific VN.  A VN Alias is a human-usable
      string that can be listed in contracts, customer forms, email,
      configuration files, etc.  and that can be communicated easily
      vocally (e.g., over the phone).  A VN [-Name-] {+Alias+} is independent 
of the
      underlying technology used to implement a VN and will generally
      not be carried in protocol fields of control protocols used in
      virtual networks.  Rather, a VN Alias will be mapped into a VN
      Name where precision is required.

I actually think "VN Name" is slightly better above.

VN ID:  A unique and compact identifier for a VN within the scope of
      a specific NVO3 administrative domain.  It will generally be more
      efficient to carry VN IDs as fields in control protocols than VN
      [-Aliases.-]
      {+Names.+}  There is a one-to-one mapping between a VN Name and a VN
      ID within an NVO3 Administrative Domain.  Depending on the
      technology used to implement an overlay network, the VN ID could
      be used as the VN Context in the data plane, or would need to be
      mapped to a locally-significant context ID.

I agree that "VN Names" would be better above.
