EPP

EPP is a standardised protocol aimed at provisioning data between registries.

The EPP protocol is intended for machine-to-machine communication in a client-server setup using XML.

Punktum dk offers the EPP service for registrars for automation and integration with local technical platforms. It is possible to perform the following operations using the service:

  • Ad hoc renewal of domain names
  • Change of name servers
  • Change of payer
  • Change of proxy
  • Updating DNSSEC data
  • Creation of name servers
  • Updating the name servers
  • Deleting name servers
  • Introduction of status codes and deletion date on domain names
  • Expansion of the EPP as a communication channel

The service requires a registrar account with us, whitelisting of IP addresses used by the registrar and implementation of the EPP client. Read more here.

EPP - technical questions and answers

From time to time, users can experience this kind of problem due to a session timeout issues in our infrastructure. As a workaround please try to logout of EPP and back in again, before attempting to issue the failed command again.

There’s currently an open invoice on this domain. As long as this hasn't been paid, renew is not possible.

Correct.

The application is awaiting the registrants acceptance of our terms.

There is at 4 days limit, until midnight, for the registrant to respond. The domain is not created, but put on hold (reserved) until the above is completed.

Failure to respond, the hold is removed and the domain is made available againg for registration. You will not be billed for the the reservation period.

There are certain limitations on specific operations due to various business rules.

The mentioned message is our generic response, when you trigger om of these rules.

We are contiously adding more specific error messages to make our error messages more meaningful to you.

We do not have a complete list of poll messages at the moment.
