1.3.3 ServerSoap (GetLicensorCertificate) Overview
RMS servers use the Get Licensor Certificate port type of the RMS: Server-to-Server Protocol to establish trust from a root server to a subordinate server.
When a subordinate RMS server is deployed, it needs to trust identities issued by the root RMS server. This is accomplished by trusting certificates that were issued by the root RMS server by trusting the root RMS server's public key. The subordinate server can use the Get Licensor Certificate port type to retrieve the SLC of the main server that contains the appropriate public key.
The Get Licensor Certificate port type uses a SOAP-based protocol over HTTP. It exposes one request/response operation: GetLicensorCertificate.
