      renamed to "address" would be the simple solution for now. The better/harder solution would be to see if we can use the existing Endpoint capability and change "ip_address" to simple "address" to make it IP stack agnostic.

      Description

      the tosca.nodes.nfv.CP type has the following attribute as part of its schema:

      attributes:
      IP_address:
      type: string
      required: false

      However, the convention in TOSCA is for all property and attribute names be lowercased.

      However, this entire type should seek to reuse the existing tosca.capabilities.Endpoint type (or its convention) which has
      an attribute "ip_adddress" already.

      In addition, ETSI members agree that "ip_address" is limiting for use in NFV in general as many networks do not use the IP protocol (stack) and have moved for us to simply use "address".
