Endpoint Listeners [Settings]

An endpoint listener receives requests from service requester applications within a specific application server or cluster.

To view this pane in the console, click the following path:

Servers > Application servers > [Content Pane] server_name > Endpoint listeners > [Content Pane] listener_name.

An endpoint listener is the point (address) at which incoming SOAP messages for a Web service are received by a service integration bus. Each endpoint listener supports a particular binding. Use this panel to configure an endpoint listener for an application server and (as part of the configuration process) connect the endpoint listener to one or more available service integration buses.

The endpoint listeners that are supplied with the product support SOAP over HTTP and SOAP over JMS bindings. If you are configuring an endpoint listener that is supplied with the product, the required values are given in Endpoint listener configuration details.

Configuration tab

Configuration properties for this object. These property values are preserved even if the runtime environment is stopped then restarted. See the information center task descriptions for information about how to apply configuration changes to the runtime environment.

General properties

Name

The name of this endpoint listener.

This name must match the name of the endpoint listener application that you have installed. For example, for SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1 the listener application is soaphttpchannel1.ear and the endpoint listener name is SOAPHTTPChannel1.

Required Yes
Data type Text

Description

An optional description of the endpoint listener.

Required No
Data type Text area

URL root

The root of the URL that should be used to build the endpoint addresses within WSDL documents to direct requesters to this endpoint listener.

The URL root is the context root of the endpoint enterprise application. It is the address at which external clients access the endpoint listener endpoint. If external clients access the endpoint listener through an HTTP server or server cluster, using default port 80, then specify the HTTP server name and no port number. For example (for SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1):
http://www.yourcompany.com/wsgwsoaphttp1
However, if you allow external clients to connect direct to your application server (for example in a development or test environment) then specify the application server host name and port number. For example (for SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1):
http://yourhost:9045/wsgwsoaphttp1

Required No
Data type Text

WSDL serving HTTP URL root

WSDL serving HTTP URL root

The root of the Web address for the WSDL files of the inbound services that are available at this endpoint listener. The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is used by the HTTP and JMS endpoint listeners, and also by UDDI registries, to retrieve the WSDL for your inbound services. This URL comprises the root of the HTTP address at which external clients access your endpoint listener application, followed by /sibws/wsdl. For example:
http://www.yourcompany.com/sibws/wsdl
or
http://yourhost:9045/sibws/wsdl
Required Yes

Additional properties
