RFC 5731 EPP Domain Name Mapping August 2009
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 4931 [RFC4931].
[RFC5730] 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
