D-AR006.11: Communication with the underlying infrastructure

D-AR006.11 reads:

          + D-AR006.11 The architecture must provide an interface for Web
            Services to directly communicate with their underlying
            infrastructure.
            The interface is for negotiating services that an
            infrastructure may provide to, or perform on behalf of, a
            requesting Web Services. Such value-added services may
            include: security, content delivery, QoS, etc. For instance,
            a Web service may instruct (via the interface) the security
            agents of its infrastructure to defend against DOS/DDOS
            attacks on its behalf.

This seems implementation-dependent, i.e. out of scope for us.

Regards,

Hugo
