This document provides an applicability statement (RFC 2026, Section
3.2) that describes how to exchange structured business data securely
using the HTTP transfer protocol, instead of SMTP; the
applicability statement for SMTP is found in RFC 3335. Structured
business data may be XML; Electronic Data Interchange
(EDI) in either the American National Standards Committee (ANSI)
X12 format or the UN Electronic Data Interchange for
Administration, Commerce, and Transport (UN/EDIFACT) format;
or other structured data formats. The data is packaged using
standard MIME structures. Authentication and data confidentiality
are obtained by using Cryptographic Message Syntax with S/MIME
security body parts. Authenticated acknowledgements make use of
multipart/signed Message Disposition Notification (MDN)
responses to the original HTTP message. This applicability
statement is informally referred to as "AS2" because it is the
second applicability statement, produced after "AS1", RFC 3335.
This document is a product of the Electronic Data Interchange-Internet
Integration Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
