The AddNodes Service allows specifying the Attributes for the Nodes to add. The NodeAttributes is an extensible parameter whose structure depends on the type of the NodeClass being added. It identifies the NodeClass that defines the structure of the Attributes that follow. The parameterTypeIds are defined in Table 153. The ExtensibleParameter type is defined in 7.17.
