EPP Repository Identifiers

Registration Procedure(s)

• First Come First Served

Reference

• RFC 5730: Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)

Note

Until the IANA requests or implements an automated process for the registration of these identifiers, any specifications must make that request part of the IANA considerations section of their respective documents. A request must be in the form of the following template:

ID

The repository identifier to be registered by IANA. If the registrant is requesting that the IANA assign an ID then this field should be specified as "Please assign". IANA will then assign an identifier derived from provided contact information, such as by using an organizational name. Formatting requirements:

• 1 character minimum length
• 8 characters maximum length

• String MUST contain only letters or digits as defined by XML 1.0.
  XML letter and digit characters are defined here:

  http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#CharClasses

The registration request must contain both the requested string and the hexadecimal representation of the characters present in the string, formatted according to the XML character classes. For example, the string "foo" would be identified as follows:

ID: foo, #x0066 #x006F #x006F

Registrant Contact

The individual/organization that is the registration contact for the component being registered. Ideally, this will include the name and pertinent physical and network contact information.

Change Controller

The individual/organization that can authorize modification or deletion of the registration.

Requests MAY be sent directly to IANA without a formal specification. The registry itself should be a list of registered strings. No review beyond IANA review is required.
