Management Interfaces
SOAP
Simple Object Access Protocol is a lightweight protocol for exchange of information in a decentralized,
distributed environment
XML
Extensible Markup Language is a flexible way to create common information formats and share both the
format and the data on the World Wide Web, intranets, and elsewhere. This functionality can be used by
management systems like the TANDBERG Management Suite to control the gateway.
HTTP Web-interface for system management, call management such as call transfer, diagnostics and
software uploads.
HTTPS Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer is a Web protocol that encrypts and decrypts
user page requests as well as the pages that are returned by the Web server. It uses Secure Socket
Layer (SSL) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP application layering. HTTPS uses port 443 instead of
HTTP port 80 in its interactions with the lower layer, TCP/IP. SSL uses a 40-bit key size for the RC4
stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree of encryption for commercial
exchange.
