2.1 Transport

This protocol can be used with the following transport protocols:

  • Media Transport Protocol [MTP]

  • Hypertext Transfer Protocol [RFC2616]

  • Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure [RFC2818]

HTTPS Security: If a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is used for a connection contains "https", the client SHOULD use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for the connection. If SSL is used, the client SHOULD check the server's certificate to ensure it is current, matches the domain, and is properly signed by a trusted authority. The client MUST follow HTTP [RFC2616] redirections during session. If a server responds with "HTTP 301 (Moved)" or "HTTP 302 (Redirect)", the client MUST use this redirect URL as the new URL and start again by submitting the request to the redirect URL.
