1.5 Prerequisites/Preconditions

This protocol is implemented on top of RPC and, as a result, has the prerequisites identified in [MS-RPCE].

The WDS Control Protocol assumes that a client has obtained the name of the server that supports this protocol, as well as an Endpoint GUID, security (authenticated or unauthenticated) requirements, an OpCode, variables required for each service the client intends to invoke, and variables used by these services to return the results.
