To enable Internet registrars that sell online identity services to access central domain name registry data more efficiently, VeriSign has developed the EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol]) to support an XML-based domain name management utility. EPP enables VeriSign Global Registry Services’ accredited registrar partners to sell domain names, telephone numbers, and other identity assets via EPP, which permits greater information sharing and flexibility and new identification technologies gain acceptance. The Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP) is a connection-oriented, application layer client-server protocol for the provisioning and management of objects stored in a shared central repository. Specified in the schema notation of the Extensible Markup Language (XML), the protocol defines generic object management operations and an extensible framework that maps protocol operations to objects. A complete set of protocol specifications was recently published with the Internet Engineering Task Force(IETF) as Internet-Draft documents.
