Hi Lyndon,

it's a bug, see http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/08jul/slides/ccamp-9.ppt

per the text:

    Ethernet endpoint identifiers, as they are defined in [G.8011] and
    [MEF10.1], differ significantly from the identifiers used by GMPLS.
    Specifically, the Ethernet endpoint identifiers are character based
    as apposed to the GMPLS norm of being IP address based.

and the UNI document:

    2.2. Ethernet Endpoint (UNI) Identification

    UNI identification, except as noted below, MUST follow Ethernet
    endpoint (UNI) identification as defined in [GMPLS-ESVCS]. There is
    one additional case that is covered in this document where the scope
    of the Ethernet endpoint identifier is relevant beyond the typical
    case of just ingress and egress nodes.

So it's "ethernet identification" in the generic document and UNI 
identification in the UNI document, which maps to the UNI 
ID/identifier in MEF/G.8011...
