2.1.2 HTTP

HTTP version 1.1 MUST be used in conjunction with HTTP State Management Mechanism as specified in [RFC2109].

The structures of the protocol are the same as with TCP, with the following exceptions:

There is no Authenticate request when using HTTP transport. Instead, the HTTP authentication model as specified in [RFC2616] MUST be used.

The response to the Calculate MDX Fragment has different structure, as specified in section 2.2.10.2.

The data structures MUST be wrapped using HTTP elements as specified in section 2.2.1.6.
