In computer networking, CIM-XML is a protocol for performing sending Common Information Model (CIM) messages on top of HTTP.
CIM-XML has two message types; Operational messages and Export Messages. Operational messages provoke a response from the receiver (RPC), while Export Messages are informational.
CIM-XML a part of the WBEM protocol family, and is standardised by the Distributed Management Task Force. It uses HTTP as its transport protocol, and inserts XML-CIM messages inside HTTP.
The terms XML-CIM and CIM-XML should not be confused. XML-CIM is an XML-serialisation of a CIM message.
