/**
- * <p></p>
* A clustered Entity is something which is shared by multiple applications across a cluster. An Entity has a type
* and an identifier.
- * </p>
+ *
* <p>
* The type describes the type of the Entity where examples of a type maybe "openflow" or "netconf"
* etc. An Entity type could be tied to how exactly an application shares and "owns" an entity. For example we may want
* first served basis. On the other hand for netconf entity types we may want applications to gain ownership based on
* a load balancing approach. While this mechanism of assigning a ownership acquisition strategy is not finalized the
* intention is that the entity type will play a role in determining the strategy and thus should be put in place.
- * </p>
+ *
* <p>
* The identifier is a YangInstanceIdentifier. The reason for the choice of YangInstanceIdentifier is because it
* can easily be used to represent a data node. For example an inventory node represents a shared entity and it is best
* referenced by the YangInstanceIdentifier if the inventory node is stored in the data store.
- * </p>
+ *
+ * <p>
* Note that an entity identifier must conform to a valid yang schema. If there is no existing yang schema to
* represent an entity, the general-entity yang model can be used.
