Centralized Conferencing Manipulation Protocol
Abstract
The Centralized Conferencing Manipulation Protocol (CCMP) allows a
Centralized Conferencing (XCON) system client to create, retrieve,
change, and delete objects that describe a centralized conference.
CCMP is a means to control basic and advanced conference features
such as conference state and capabilities, participants, relative
roles, and details. CCMP is a stateless, XML-based, client server
protocol that carries, in its request and response messages,
conference information in the form of XML documents and fragments
conforming to the centralized conferencing data model schema.
