A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 7878 Title: Session Peering Provisioning (SPP) Protocol over SOAP Author: K. Cartwright, V. Bhatia, J-F. Mule, A. Mayrhofer Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: August 2016 Mailbox: kcartwright@tnsi.com, vbhatia@tnsi.com, jfmule@apple.com, alexander.mayrhofer@nic.at Pages: 83 Characters: 145284 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-drinks-spp-protocol-over-soap-09.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7878 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17487/RFC7878 The Session Peering Provisioning Framework (SPPF) specifies the data model and the overall structure to provision Session Establishment Data (SED) into Session Data Registries and SIP Service Provider data stores. To utilize this framework, one needs a substrate protocol. Given that the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) is currently widely used for messaging between elements of such provisioning systems, this document specifies the usage of SOAP (via HTTPS) as the substrate protocol for SPPF. The benefits include leveraging prevalent expertise and a higher probability that existing provisioning systems will be able to easily migrate to using an %SPPF- based protocol. This document is a product of the Data for Reachability of Inter/tra-NetworK SIP Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
