Web HTTP Sharing Protocol
Setting Web HTTP Sharing Protocol
The HTTP is the Internet protocol used by World Wide Web browsers and servers to
exchange information. The protocol defines what actions Web servers and browsers should
take in response to various commands, thus making it possible for a user to use a client
program to enter a URL, or choose a hyperlink, and retrieve text, graphics, sound, and
other digital information from a Web server. All URLs of files on Web servers begin with
http://.
The hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) is a communications protocol designed to transfer
hypertext documents between computers over the Web. HTTP defines what actions Web
servers and browsers should take in response to various commands.
The commands used by the Web are defined in HTTP.
To specify the location of a resource, HTTP uses Uniform Resource Locators (URLs).
URLs follow a naming convention that uniquely identifies the location of a computer,
directory, or file on the Internet. The URL also specifies the Internet protocol—FTP,
HTTP, for example— needed to retrieve the resource. If you know the URL of a
resource, you can provide the URL, or you can link to it from a document you want to
make available to Web users.
The HTTP protocol supports anonymous access, as well as basic and Windows
authentication.
