Login[Link]
The login command is used to authenticate the client to the EPP server and establish a session with the EPP server. It must be sent before any other command (except hello). The user id and EPP password will be used to authenticate the party that wants to set up the session.
During an active session, a login command is rejected by the server. A session should be terminated with the logout command.
