         .au Extensions to the Extensible Provisioning Protocol
                           au-extensions-1.2

Abstract

   This document describes application layer client-server protocol
   extensions for the Extensible Provisioning Protocol as needed for the
   management of domain objects stored in the .au Registry.  Specified
   in XML, the protocol defines specific object management operations
   and an extensible framework that maps the protocol extensions to the
   relevant objects.  This document includes a protocol specification,
   an object mapping template, and an XML media type registration.  This
   document obsoletes the .au Extensions version 1.1.

Internet-Draft            .au Extensions to EPP                July 2015


1.  Introduction

   This document contains explanations of the relevant commands from the
   EPP RFCs that are affected by the inclusion of the au extensions.

   The use of these extensions by the client/server will be identified
   in the following commands as explained in the relevant sections
   below:

   o  <login>

   o  <greeting>

   EPP's command response extension framework [EPP RFC4930 2.7.3] is
   used to extend the following commands:

   o  <domain:create>

   o  <domain:update>

   And the following responses:

   o  <domain:info>

   The following additional Protocol Extensions (object/operation
   extension) [EPP RFC4930 2.7.1] are defined:

   o  <auext:registrantTransfer>


2.  EPP <greeting>

   All standard EPP elements apply plus:

   o  A <svcExtension> element that contains a <extURI> element that
      includes the namespace URI representing the .au EPP extensions.

9.  Security Considerations

   The mapping extensions described in this document do not provide any
   security services beyond those described by EPP [RFC5730], the EPP
   Domain Name Mapping [RFC5731], and protocol layers used by EPP.  The
   security considerations described in these other specifications apply
   to this specification as well.
