ASN.1 to XML Translation Service

ASN2XML is a web application for converting ASN.1 encoded binary data into equivalent XML. An ASN.1 specification may be associated with the binary data in order to print element names and values as defined in the ASN.1 schema. Submit your binary data file and associated ASN.1 schema file for conversion and, if successful, the translated XML document will be shown in your web-browser. A command-line version of this tool is available in our ASN2TXT product.

ASN2XML Data Entry Form

This form is used to set the conversion parameters. Complete each of the sections and then click 'Submit' at the bottom to do the translation.

Step 1: Enter Message to be Translated

Message data may be entered either by uploading a file or copying/pasting text to a message box. Select input method:

File Text

Enter a filename or use 'Browse' to select a file containing an ASN.1 encoded message to be translated. The message file may contain binary data, hexadecimal text, or base64 encoded data.

Binary Hexadecimal text Base64 text

Note: The maximum size of a file to be translated is 500K bytes.

Enter or Paste Hexadecimal or Base64 Text Into the Area Below:

Hexadecimal text Base64 text Base64 text

Step 2: Enter ASN.1 Specification

Either a built-in ASN.1 schema specification may be used or a custom ASN.1 specification file may be uploaded. Select input method:

None Built-in File

Select Category/Standard:

Select release number:

Text file containing ASN.1 specification that defines type(s) used to encode the given message. This argument is required for PER, optional for BER/DER/CER.

Select the ASN.1 encoding rules that were used to encode this message.

BER/DER/CER PER (aligned) U-PER (unaligned)

Note: all ASN.1 definitions for the main module and IMPORTS must be present in the ASN.1 schema that is submitted. The schema may contain more than one module definition. It is not possible to submit multiple files.

Enter Message Protocol Data Unit Type Name:

The message protocol data unit (PDU) type is the name of the ASN.1 type that was used to encode the given message. This argument is required for PER, optional for BER/DER/CER.
