VitalQIP Product Description
Product
Capabilities
2.2.3
Command Line Interface
The command line interface provides an extensive set of CLIs for users who prefer such an interface.
This interface is very similar to a UNIX command line with a command along with a set of required and
optional command arguments.
2.2.4
New Web Services API
The Web Services API offers many of the existing CLI commands, as well as all new commands. The
VitalQIP Web Service is used to access the Address Allocation, Address Management, DNS Views
(including their zones and servers), and Managed Files, functionality provided by VitalQIP. The interface
uses the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), which encodes messages using Extensible Markup
Language (XML), and uses HTTP or HTTPS for transport. A Web Services Description Language
(WSDL) document is available that defines the interface.
2.2.5
API Toolkit
The API Toolkit provides a programmatic interface into VitalQIP and the Lucent DHCP server.
Enterprises or service providers wishing to integrate VitalQIP functions into a larger management system
infrastructure may chose this interface. The API provides a rich set of C/C++ calls.
