#### About ESNIC Plug-in

The ESNIC plug-in provided in HSPcomplete is an XML gateway using the HTTPS transport between the HSPcomplete domain objects and the ESNIC domain registry.

Domain registration

When domain registration is requested for the Provider Account, an XML form is being sent to ESNIC immediately, then the response from ESNIC server is received, and the domain is switched to the Registering status.

For the domain registration request ESNIC first creates only a petition. HSPcomplete has to wait while this petition is approved by the ESNIC registry. After the petition is approved, HSPcomplete automatically processes it via ESNIC and the domain status changes to Registered.

For domains which are ordered from your online store (or registration is requested from Provider Control Center for one of your customer accounts) the registration procedure is almost the same, however the domain registration request is sent to ESNIC only after the corresponding order is paid.

If there were any errors in request, the domain status becomes Error. In this case, you can turn to the Action Log in Provider Control Center and look for the corresponding record, which will help you to analyze the source of problem.

Domain transfer

The ESNIC service currently supports a domain transfer operation.

When domain transfer is requested for Provider account, an XML form is sent immediately to ESNIC and the ESNIC server response is received and processed right away. When the successful transfer response arrives from ESNIC, the domain status becomes Transferring.

In case there have been any error in the request, the domain status becomes Error and an appropriate record is saved in the Action Log which can help you to analyze the source of problem.

The ESNIC plug-in periodically checks the status of the domain being transferred. Thus, after the domain has been successfully transferred on the ESNIC side, this information is sent to HSPcomplete, and the domain status becomes Registered.

In case any errors occur while domain transferring to the ESNIC service (e.g., rejected or cancelled), then HSPcomplete gets this information and the domain status becomes Error.

Domain Modification

Name servers synchronization is available now with the ESNIC plug-in. You can also make use of Whois/Contacts modification if necessary.

Domain Renewal

Network Solutions supports automated domain registration renewals. Depending on the subscription renewal options, this operation can be performed automatically or manually with an appropriate button in the Domain subscription properties.
