A Location Dereference Protocol Using HTTP-Enabled Location Delivery
RFC 6753, “A Location Dereference Protocol Using HTTP-Enabled Location Delivery”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2012 by J. Winterbottom, H. Tschofenig, H. Schulzrinne, M. Thomson. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes how to use the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) over Transport Layer Security (TLS) as a dereference protocol to resolve a reference to a Presence Information Data Format Location Object (PIDF-LO). This document assumes that a Location Recipient possesses a URI that can be used in conjunction with the HTTP-Enabled Location Delivery (HELD) protocol to request the location of the Target.
