-A parameter declared in the outputs: section of a nested template can

+If a VNF's Heat Orchestration Template's nested YAML file is
+required to expose a resource property to the invoking Heat Orchestration
+Template, an ``outputs:`` statement
+must be used in the nested YAML file. The invoking template
+references the property by using the intrinsic function ``get_attr``
+that targets the resource invoking the nested YAML file and references
+the parameter defined in the ``outputs`` section.
