EFI REST(EX) protocols are designed to support REST communication between EFI REST client applications/drivers and REST services. EFI REST client tool uses EFI REST(EX) protocols to send/receive resources to/from REST service to manage systems, configure systems or manipulate resources on REST service. Due to HTTP protocol is commonly used to communicate with REST service in practice, EFI REST(EX) protocols adopt HTTP as the message format to send and receive REST service resource. EFI REST(EX) driver instance abstracts EFI REST client functionality and provides underlying interface to communicate with REST service. EFI REST(EX) driver instance knows how to communicate with REST service through certain interface after the corresponding configuration is initialized.
