WSD (Web Services for Devices)
WSD (Web Services for Devices) provides a way for clients to discover the device and the services the
device offers. It is based on Devices Profile for Web Services (DPWS).
Once a device is discovered, a client can retrieve a description of services hosted on that device and use
those services. WSD allows a client to:
•
Send messages to and from a web service.
•
Dynamically discover a web service.
•
Obtain a description of a web service.
•
Subscribe to, and receive events from a web service.
Vista (only) operating system provides a WSD client to connect with printing and scanning peripherals
that offer the WSD interface.
