WBEM Discovery Using the Service Location Protocol (SLP)

SCOPE

This specification describes an efficient method for WBEM Clients to discover WBEM Servers and WBEM Server capabilities. The objectives of this specification are to:

  • Provide a mechanism that allows WBEM Clients to discover WBEM Servers
  • Use existing standards and protocols for rapid development and deployment
  • Provide a mechanism that scales from small environments to enterprise environments
  • Provide WBEM Clients sufficient information in the advertisement to determine the WBEM
  • Servers to communicate with

Scope the level of advertisement to avoid security holes The Service Location Protocol provides a flexible and scalable framework for providing clients, represented by User Agents, with access to information about the existence, location, and configuration of services, represented by Service Agents. Traditionally, clients have had to know the name and access method of services. The SLP eliminates the need for a client to know the name and access point of services. With SLP the client supplies a request for the desired type of service. The client receives information regarding the requested services
