Extensible Provisioning Protocol[edit | edit source]

EPP is the industry standard protocol for managing domain names and associated objects in a Shared Registry System environment. It is an XML-based protocol defined in RFC 5730, RFC 5731, RFC 5732, RFC 5733, RFC 5734. Use cases not defined in the base protocol may be defined as extensions. Examples of extensions include: RFC 3915 for domain grace periods, and RFC 5910 for managing DNSSEC.
