[Css-csts] definition of the term "managed parameters"

[John Pietras]

CSTSWG colleagues ---
In his detailed review of last July's draft of the TD-CSTS book, Sylvain asked for a definition of the term "managed parameter", a term that he did not find in the CSTS SFW (see below). 

Actually, it *does* appear once in the CSTS SFW, in section 2.3. However, it is easy certainly easy to miss that. Since every CSTS specification will likely have to deal with determining which (if any) configuration parameters are designated as managed parameters, I suggest that we add the term to section 1.6.1.4 of the CSTS SFW. My proposed definition would be something like:
Managed parameter - A configuration parameter for which the value is set by Service Management.

Conveniently, we will be having a meeting next week where we can discuss this! 

Best regards,
John

Hello John,

I reviewed the update of the TD-CSTS_W-0-10-15721 you put on the CWE on 21.07.
I made the review with the FW-CSTS_921x1r2 20150708 (that has already changed a bit since).
I hope it helps making the document ready for prototyping.

- chap 5.2 page 5-1 and chap 5.3 page 5-1: these chapters speak about "managed parameter". There is no description or reference to the FW-CSTS that explains this notion. Could you add this somewhere?
