3.1.4.1 Common Message Processing Events and Sequencing Rules

This section describes protocol details that are common across WSDL operations.

When the Web Services Management Protocol Extensions for Windows Vista service receives an HTTP header at the start of any HTTP request message, the service MUST create a new Packet Retrieval timer, associate it with the request, and start the timer. The timer interval MUST be set to the number of seconds given by the MaxPacketRetrievalTimeSeconds configuration setting, as specified in section 2.2.4.36.

On receipt of the entire HTTP message, the Packet Retrieval timer for that HTTP request MUST be canceled.
