10、tions. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunicati

11、on Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of inf

12、ormation technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating ag

13、ency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some

14、 other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or i

15、mplementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development pro

20、n IETF standard protocol for exchanging information between network endpoints using Extensible Markup Language (XML). It is used to enable instant messaging and presence applications and is growing in popularity. This Recommendation includes XMPP in the suite of protocols that is supported in ITU-T

21、H.350, so that an organization can directory-enable and manage XMPP resources in the same way that other multimedia protocols (e.g., H.320, H.323, SIP) are managed in ITU-T H.350. The schema provides a method for representing XMPP URIs and user information in the directory. Note that this Recommenda

22、tion defines representation of URIs and not IRIs, as described in IETF RFC 4622. The scope of this Recommendation does not include normative methods for the use of the LDAP directory itself or the data it contains. 1.1 Extending the schema The xmppURIObject classes may be extended as necessary for s

23、pecific implementations. See the base ITU-T H.350 document for a discussion on schema extension. 1.2 Typical use cases Many applications external to an XMPP network may need to identify XMPP entities as full URIs; in this case an LDAP directory that needs to store XMPP addresses and non-native user

24、agents (e.g., web browsers, calendaring applications and enterprise white pages) that provide interface to XMPP services. The simplest case is to have a white page lookup where a user is using a web browser to search for other users that are using an XMPP-based client. Another use case would be for

25、an XMPP server to use XMPP account credentials (xmppUserId and xmppPassword attributes) stored in an H.350 directory for authenticating requests from XMPP clients. This is useful for environments where there is no backend authentication mechanism available. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommend

35、ss another specification is explicitly listed. 6 Object Class definitions The xmppURIObject represents an XMPP URI; that is, the address of an entity that is capable of communicating using the XMPP protocol. Because it is its own unique object class, the directory can be searched for the presence of

36、 this attribute. Note that XMPP uses Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) for authentication, enabling each deployment to make use of its own backend authentication mechanism such as Kerberos. Because of this, many applications will not need to use the username and password attributes. Ho

37、wever, these attributes are included for those implementations which do not use backend authentication, or for implementations which do, but need a small number of static ITU-T Rec.
