Abstract
This document describes an Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)
mapping for the provisioning and management of Internet domain names
stored in a shared central repository. Specified in XML, the mapping
defines EPP command syntax and semantics as applied to domain names.
This document obsoletes RFC 3731.

RFC 4931 EPP Domain Name Mapping May 2007
1. Introduction
This document describes an Internet domain name mapping for version
1.0 of the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP). This mapping is
specified using the Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 as described
in [W3C.REC-xml-20040204] and XML Schema notation as described in
[W3C.REC-xmlschema-1-20041028] and [W3C.REC-xmlschema-2-20041028].
This document obsoletes RFC 3731 [RFC3731].
[RFC4930] provides a complete description of EPP command and response
structures. A thorough understanding of the base protocol
specification is necessary to understand the mapping described in
this document.
XML is case sensitive. Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications
and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the
character case presented to develop a conforming implementation.
1.1. Relationship of Domain Objects and Host Objects
The EPP mapping for host objects is described in [RFC4932]. This
