// msp_principal.proto contains proto messages defining the generalized
// MSP notion of identity called an MSPPrincipal.  It is used as part of
// the chain configuration, in particular as the identity parameters to
// the configuration.proto file.  This does not represent the MSP
// configuration for a chain, but is understood by MSPs

// MSPPrincipal aims to represent an MSP-centric set of identities.
// In particular, this structure allows for definition of
//  - a group of identities that are member of the same MSP
//  - a group of identities that are member of the same organization unit
//    in the same MSP
//  - a group of identities that are administering a specific MSP
//  - a specific identity
// Expressing these groups is done given two fields of the fields below
//  - Classification, that defines the type of classification of identities
//    in an MSP this principal would be defined on; Classification can take
//    three values:
//     (i)  ByMSPRole: that represents a classification of identities within
//          MSP based on one of the two pre-defined MSP rules, "member" and "admin"
//     (ii) ByOrganizationUnit: that represents a classification of identities
//          within MSP based on the organization unit an identity belongs to
//     (iii)ByIdentity that denotes that MSPPrincipal is mapped to a single
//          identity/certificate; this would mean that the Principal bytes
