software and supports standard Internet and other message formats. The
specification details the three functions provided by the technology --
discovery, availability check and service management.

SLP automates the following procedures: Matching the needs of user agents to the services offered by service agents; The advertisement of services by service agents; The organization of services into directories managed by directory agents; Obtaining service information for User Agents from the SLP framework, without prior configuration; Providing a means for services to inform client applications of their capabilities and configuration
requirements.
