A web services gateway allows you to configure specific endpoint listeners and deploy gateway and proxy services to those listeners.
To view this pane in the console, click the following path:
bus_name.
To browse or change the properties of a listed item, select its name in the list.
To act on one or more of the listed items, select the check boxes next to the names of the items that you want to act on, then use the buttons provided.
To change which entries are listed, or to change the level of detail that is displayed for those entries, use the Filter settings.
The gateway provides you with a single point of control, access and validation of Web service requests, and allows you to control which Web services are available to different groups of Web service users. It also allows you to map multiple target services to a single gateway service, and to configure proxy services.
You create Web services gateway instances to partition the total set of gateway and proxy services into logical groups to allow simpler management.
