# JSON-RPC Remote access {#jsonrpc_proxy}
SPDK provides a sample python script `rpc_http_proxy.py`, that provides http server which listens for JSON objects from users. It uses HTTP POST method to receive JSON objects including methods and parameters described in this chapter.
## Parameters
Name | Optional | Type | Description
----------------------- | -------- | ----------- | -----------
server IP | Required | string | IP address that JSON objects shall be received on
server port | Required | number | Port number that JSON objects shall be received on
user name | Required | string | User name that will be used for authentication
password | Required | string | Password that will be used for authentication
RPC listen address | Optional | string | Path to SPDK JSON RPC socket. Default: /var/tmp/spdk.sock
## Example usage
`spdk/scripts/rpc_http_proxy.py 192.168.0.2 8000 user password`
## Returns
Error 401 - missing or incorrect user and/or password.
Error 400 - wrong JSON syntax or incorrect JSON method
Status 200 with resultant JSON object included on success.
## Client side
Below is a sample python script acting as a client side. It sends `bdev_get_bdevs` method with optional `name` parameter and prints JSON object returned from remote_rpc script.
~~~
import json
import requests
if __name__ == '__main__':
payload = {'id':1, 'method': 'bdev_get_bdevs', 'params': {'name': 'Malloc0'}}
url = 'http://192.168.0.2:8000/'
req = requests.post(url,
data=json.dumps(payload),
auth=('user', 'password'),
verify=False,
timeout=30)
print (req.json())
~~~
Output:
~~~
python client.py
