The Cosmo Management Protocol is a RESTful HTTP-based protocol for management of the Cosmo server. Using CMP, clients can get and put XML representations of Cosmo entities for such tasks as creating, updating and deleting user accounts in Cosmo. Examples of tools that might use CMP:
- Post-installation script for changing the server administrator password and email address
- Bulk loading tool for populating the server with user accounts
- User interface for an external user directory that synchronizes accounts in the directory and Cosmo
