TANDBERG Gatekeeper/Border Controller API User Guide 1.2 Introduction to XML Path Language (XPath) XPath is a comprehensive language to address data in XML documents. It is, however, very simple to understand the basics. If you are able to specify the path to a file on your computer, you are able to specify the path to an element in a XML structure. Example 1.5 Let us go back to the SNMP configuration of Example 1.1: On

TANDBERG Gatekeeper/Border Controller API User Guide Example 1.7 When using XPath it is possible to omit specifying intermediate levels in the address expression. By using the powerful “double slash" you can address elements without having to specify the complete path. To show all the aliases registered on the system, the complete path would be: Status/Registrations/Registration/Aliases/Alias Using the “double slash" syntax this can be simplified to: Status//Alias

TANDBERG Gatekeeper/Border Controller API User Guide 1.3 The TANDBERG XML Engine The TANDBERG XML engine is optimized for advanced machine-machine interaction between a TANDBERG system and an external control application. The main features can be summarized as: • Structuring of information • Addressing using XPath • Feedback 1.3.1 Structuring of Information An application programming interface can be seen as a gate where information is exchanged between two systems: a control

The user/control application can therefore limit the amount of information it receives from the target system to only those parts being of interest for the given application. 1.4 The XML Documents 1.4.1 Documents The XML Data in the TANDBERG systems are divided into three main types of documents. The division is based on whether the information is Read Information, Write Information or Read-Write informatio

TANDBERG Gatekeeper/Border Controller API User Guide 1.5 Introduction to TANDBERG XML API Service (TXAS) TXAS is a service provided by TANDBERG units for transmitting and receiving information encoded in XML format. The API uses HTTP(S) as the transport mechanism and connects to the normal web port (80). TXAS can be accessed in two ways: • bare-bone HTTP requests where URLs uniquely identify the request, and • SOAP, where a single URI is used but the request itself is encoded wi

TANDBERG Gatekeeper/Border Controller API User Guide Like getxml, it has the data URL form-data encoded with one single parameter. The Content-Type of the document must be of type “application/x-www-form-urlencoded" and the body must be encoded accordingly (e.g. first line will be xmldoc=). Example 1.16 Using the Unix curl command, the systems SNMP contact can be set in the Configuration document: curl –k –u admin: -d \ '
