2.1.3.2 SOAP on TCP

This section specifies a binding of SOAP to TCP for use in .NET Remoting:

  • The TCP connection MUST be a duplex connection.

  • The SOAP request and the SOAP response MUST be transmitted through the same connection. The connection MUST be exclusive for a request-response until the response is completely processed by the client.

  • The payload MUST include enough information outside the SOAP Envelope (as transport frame header) to identify the Server Object and the format identifier.

  • SOAP Faults have no impact on the TCP Message Frame structure.
