### WebSocket Support
WAIS implements the [ETSI MEC009](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_gs/MEC/001_099/009/03.01.01_60/gs_MEC009v030101p.pdf) _REST-based subscribe/notify with Websocket
fallback_ pattern.
This pattern requires sending a test notification to the notification endpoint URI in the subscription request to determine
if it is directly reachable or not. On success, standard REST-based notification methods continue; on failure (and upon client request),
WAIS creates a WebSocket subscription endpoint where the client may connect to receive notifications.
_**NOTE:**_ WebSockets are required when client applications subscribing for notifications are behind a NAT/firewall.
