After discovering the URI of the server’s SubscriptionList and desired resource, the client can append new subscription entries to the list.

Note: In this case, the client is conditionally subscribing to an instantaneous meter reading value. If the value is less than 10 or greater than 1000, a Notification is sent to the specified notificationURI in the POX encoded format.

POST /edev/8/sub HTTP/1.1 Host: {hostname}

Content-Type: application/sep+xml Content-Length: {contentLength}

<Subscription xmlns="urn:ieee:std:2030.5:ns">

<subscribedResource>/upt/0/mr/4/r</subscribedResource>

<encoding>0</encoding>

<level>+S1</level>

<limit>1</limit>

<notificationURI>/note</notificationURI>

</Subscription>

2

If new subscription entries are created, the server would respond with the following, where Location indicates the path to the newly created subscription resource:

HTTP/1.1 201 Created Location: /edev/8/sub/5

If entries were not created but modified the server would respond with:

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

3

A change on the subscribed resource occurs which satisfies the above specified conditions.

4

Notification is sent from the server to the client:

POST /note HTTP/1.1 Host: {hostname}

Content-Type: application/sep+xml Content-Length: {contentLength}

<Notification xmlns="urn:ieee:std:2030.5:ns" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<subscribedResource>/upt/0/mr/4/r</subscribedResource>

<Resource xsi:type="Reading">

<timePeriod>

<duration>0</duration>

<start>12987364</start>

</timePeriod>

<value>1001</value>

</Resource>

<status>0</status>

<subscriptionURI>/edev/8/sub/5</subscriptionURI>

</Notification>

5

The client responds with HTTP response:

HTTP/1.1 201 Created
