What is EPP?

 

Extensible Provisioning Protocol is a stateful XML protocol. It is designed for allocating objects within registries over the Internet. The goal of the EPP is to provide communication between domain name registries and domain name registrars. Through this communication domain names can be registered and renewed. Before EPP, registries used many different proprietary interfaces. 

The process of obtaining domain-related information over EPP is as it goes:

  1. The customer looks up and orders a domain from a Domain Registrar;

  2. The Domain Registrar checks the order and sends an EPP request to the Domain Registry;

  3. The Registry checks the order, updates the database and returns EPP confirmation to the Domain Registrar;

  4. The Domain Registrar returns order confirmation back to the customer.
