This article is about the computer networking concept. See also Beep for a disambiguation page. In computer networking, BEEP (Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol) is a framework for creating network application protocols. It is intended to abstract out the common features that have traditionally been duplicated in each protocol implementation. BEEP (formerly called BXXP) typically runs on top of TCP and allows the exchange of messages called 'frames'. Unlike HTTP (and similar protocols), either end of the connection can send a frame at any time, and 'questions' and 'replies' can be interleaved easily. BEEP also includes facilities for encryption and authentication, and is highly extensible.
