I take it that BridgeDomains are the protocol-agnostic equivalent of an L2 segment?

Should we make a wiki page somewhere of the core abstractions and their loose equivalents? It might be useful.

For example:
Node = Switch/Router/Etc
Edge = Link
NodeConnector = Nodes and edges connect, e.g., a switch port
