A client subscribes (or unsubscribes) to receive area weather data, and receives a confirmation from the server. This interaction represents a request-response operation.

Subscribers can choose to send weather data to the service when local conditions change, using the one-way operation.

The service sends notifications of changed conditions to all subscribers through the notification operation.

Finally, when the service receives a subscription request, it uses the solicit-response operation for verify that the requesting client is reachable, using the result to determine whether the subscription request succeeds.
